1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a device management program operating in a control device that communicates with a device via an access point, the device management program causing the control device to function as:
a storing unit configured to store first access point information concerning a first access point and first device information, which is device information concerning the device connected via the first access point, in correlation with each other in advance;
a communication-state confirming unit configured to confirm a communication state at predetermined timing;
an access-point-information acquiring unit configured to, when the communication state confirmed by the communication-state confirming unit is a communication error state, acquire second access point information concerning a second access point that is in the communication error state;
a determining unit configured to determine whether the acquired second access point information and the first access point information stored in advance coincide;
a communication-state-information acquiring unit configured to acquire information concerning the communication with the device when the determining unit determines that the acquired second access point information and the first access point information stored in advance coincide; and
a communication-state notifying unit configured to perform a notification based on the information acquired by the communication-state-information acquiring unit.
