Claim 6:
7. An information processing system configured to achieve communication between a recording device and a maintenance service providing unit, wherein
the recording device includes:
a transport unit configured to transport a medium along a transport path;
a recording unit configured to perform recording on the medium transported;
a wrinkle forming mechanism configured to form a wrinkle at a portion of the medium on the transport path;
a detection unit configured to detect a state of the portion of the medium where the wrinkle is formed;
a first communication unit configured to communicate with the maintenance service providing unit; and
a first control unit, wherein

the first control unit is configured to control the wrinkle forming mechanism to form the wrinkle under a prescribed condition and to transmit detection data detected by the detection unit to the maintenance service providing unit,
the maintenance service providing unit includes:
a second communication unit configured to communicate with the recording device;
a storage unit in which a data table where a printing parameter is associated with a rigidity characteristic is stored; and
a second control unit, and

the second control unit is configured to calculate the rigidity characteristic of the medium based on the received detection data, to derive the printing parameter corresponding to the calculated rigidity characteristic, and to transmit the derived printing parameter to the recording device.
