ABSTRACT:
To easily change the specifications of a subsidiary device without changing a system unit, an information processing apparatus includes a slave control unit for controlling a slave device and a system control unit for receiving email from an external line and storing and managing the email. In transmitting email information to the slave device, email information stored in the system control unit is temporarily stored in the slave control unit and then transmitted to the slave device, improving information transmission efficiency.
