Abstract
A system in which a recording device is connected to another device can test the functionality of the recording device and test the functionality of the system including the recording device at the same time. A recording systemcauses the printerto execute a test relating to the functionality of the printerin response to operation of a test switch, store the test switchoperation count, and return the stored test switchoperation count in response to a request from the host computer. The host computerrequests the printerto send the test switchoperation count, and runs a test related to the recording systembased on the operation count returned by the printerin response to the request.
