ABSTRACT:
A multi-function peripheral device, connected to an information processing device, has a plurality of functional units for exerting mutually different functions by exchanging data with the information processing device. The multi-function peripheral device includes a specific command judgment unit for judging whether data from the information processing device contains a specific command corresponding to any one of the plurality of the functional units and a data supplier for acting when the specific command detector determines that the specific command exists. The data supplier thereupon supplies the data from the information processing device, including the specific command, to the one of the functional units to which the specific command corresponds.
