Abstract
Load on a system is reduced. In an embodiment, a status information managing unit acquires data indicating the status of each functional unit to be transmitted to an apparatus management server, and a system control unit instructs data acquisition timing for acquiring the data to the status information managing unit. Moreover, the status information managing unit acquires data that changes over time according to the usage status, and acquires and caches, in advance, data that does not change over time according to the usage status. Furthermore, after receiving a transmission request from the apparatus management server, the system control unit transmits status information including cached data and acquired data. Thus, at the time of data transmission, only data that changes over time need be acquired, so the number of data to be acquired may be reduced.
