PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a transmission side to learn a processing state of data at a reception side even after disconnection of radio communication used for transmission of the data.SOLUTION: A terminal device 20 and a printer 10 establish one-on-one connection by Wi-Fi direct, and the terminal device 20 transmits job data 60 including print data to the printer 10 using Wi-Fi, and then releases connection by Wi-Fi direct. Upon receiving the job data 60, the printer 10 prints the print data, and transmits status data 70 including a print result (output success/output failure) by broadcast using BLE without establishing one-on-one connection with the terminal device 20.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 9 【課題】データの送信に用いた無線通信を切断した後であっても、受信側でのデータの処理状況を送信側で把握する。【解決手段】端末装置２０と印刷装置１０との間に、Ｗｉ−Ｆｉ Ｄｉｒｅｃｔによる１対１の接続を確立し、端末装置２０から印刷装置１０に、Ｗｉ−Ｆｉを用いて印刷データを含むジョブデータ６０を送信した後、Ｗｉ−Ｆｉ Ｄｉｒｅｃｔによる接続を解除する。ジョブデータ６０を受信した印刷装置１０は、印刷データの印刷を実行し、その印刷結果（出力成功／出力失敗）を含むステータスデータ７０を、ＢＬＥを用いることで、端末装置２０との間で１対１の接続を確立せずにブロードキャスト送信する。【選択図】図９
