Abstract
A printer as a peripheral device notifies a proxy response server connectable to a LAN during transition to a sleep mode from a normal data processing wait state of sleep transition request. After the proxy response server receives a sleep mode transition request, and when the proxy response server receives a sleep release request from any client PC in which a proxy response server is connected to a LAN, a sleep mode is released at a sleep release request from the proxy response server.
