To prevent the wireless communication by an electronic apparatus from violating the Radio Law of an installation country by correctly identifying a country where an image formation apparatus is installed and preventing the erroneous installation of channels.SOLUTION: A control unit 10 acquires setting information from a router 2 by using any of first to thirteenth channels that are set to be effective in advance through a first communication unit 22, acquires destination information from a server device 3 through a second communication unit 23, and executes effective setting processing for setting thirty-sixth to forty-eighth channels in the 5 GHz band that are permitted to use in the "A" country being a setting country and the destination to be effective as the channels used for the communication of the first communication unit 22 when the setting country and the destination match with each other.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3A 【課題】画像形成装置が設置されている国を正確に特定するとともに、チャンネルの誤設定を防止して、電子機器による無線通信が設置国の電波法に違反してしまうことを確実に防ぐ。【解決手段】制御部１０は、第１通信部２２を介して、予め有効に設定されている第１チャンネルから第１３チャンネルまでのうちのいずれかを用いて、ルーター２から設定情報を取得し、第２通信部２３を介して、サーバー装置３から仕向地情報を取得し、設定国と仕向地とが一致している場合に、設定国及び仕向地であるＡ国において使用が認められている５ＧＨｚ帯の第３６チャンネルから第４８チャンネルまでを、第１通信部２２の通信に用いるチャンネルとして有効に設定する有効設定処理を実行する。【選択図】図３Ａ
