Abstract
The advantage of the invention is to prevent the efficiency of printing from being deteriorated due to execution of an authentication process during a print process by arranging an authentication process not to be conducted during a print process. The multi-purpose device is connected to the authentication switch through the LAN. The authentication switch conducts an authentication process of a device connected to the LAN, and disconnects a connection between the device and the network in a case where the device cannot be authenticated. The multi-purpose device has the authentication requesting section that requests the authentication process with respect to the authentication switch; and the printing mechanism that prints print data. In a case where the printing mechanism conducts the print process, the authentication requesting section requests the authentication process before the printing mechanism starts the print process.
