Abstract
An image processing device is provided that includes an establishment unit configured to establish a first connection with a first information processing device, a detector configured to detect a connection request that requests the image processing device to terminate the first connection with the first information processing device and thereafter establish a second connection with a second information processing device, the second connection being an exclusive connection configured to forbid establishment of connections other than the second connection while being established, and a restriction unit configured to restrict the second connection with the second information processing device from being established when the detector detects the connection request in a state where the first connection is established between the image processing device and the first information processing device.
