Abstract
An image processing device that is capable of executing a job by working together with a server, having: an application that establishes a connection that enables a communication with the server, and establishes periodic communications with the server at predetermined time intervals to maintain the connection; a periodic communication managing part that manages the periodic communication with the server by the application; and a power controller that includes a timer that measures a time elapsed after the application establishes the periodic communication, the power controller starting again a power supply to the application when the timer measures the time interval after the power supply to the application is stopped if a predetermined condition is met. The periodic communication managing part enables the application to establish the periodic communication with the server and resets the measured time before the power supply to the application is stopped by the power controller.
