1. A method of monitoring the condition of an electronic device from a plurality of computers, comprising: performing communication with said plurality of computers;storing a communication address of said electronic device and a transmission destination table composed of a plurality of entries; andcontrolling operation of said electronic device,wherein the plurality of entries has an index number, a transmission destination communication address and a status indicating whether rewriting of the entry is possible,wherein, when said electronic device is started up, rebooted or initialized or when the communication address of said electronic device is chanced after said electronic device was started up, rebooted or initialized last, the entries of said transmission destination table are initialized to set the transmission destination addresses of the entries to predetermined initial addresses,receiving a first request from a first computer to change the transmission destination address of a particular entry in plurality of entries in the transmission destination table to a first address, wherein the particular entry has a status indicator that indicates whether rewriting of the transmission destination address is possible;changing the transmission designation address of the particular entry to the first address;transmitting a first response when the changing of the transmission designation address of the particular entry to the first address ended normally;subsequently receiving a second request from a second computer to change the transmission destination address of the particular entry to a second address different from the first address; andtransmitting a second response to indicate an error in response to the second request including when the transmission destination address in the second request is a valid transmission destination address. 2. The electronic device as set forth in claim 1, wherein, when after a third request transmitted from the first computer for adding an entry designated by the first computer is received, and a fourth request is transmitted from the second computer for adding an entry same as the entry designated by the first computer by means of the second computer, storing the entry designated by the first computer in the third request, transmitting a response indicating that the processing ended normally to the first computer, and thentransmitting a response indicating an error to the second computer. 3. A method of monitoring an electronic device, comprising: connecting a plurality of computers through a network; andmonitoring the electronic device by said plurality of computers, the condition of said electronic device being monitored from said plurality of computers through said network,wherein the electronic device accomplishes the steps of:performing communication with said plurality of computers,storing a communication address of said electronic device and a transmission destination table composed of a plurality of entries, andcontrolling operation of said electronic device,wherein the plurality of entries has an index number, a transmission destination communication address and a status indicating whether rewriting of the entry is possible,wherein, when said electronic device is started up, rebooted or initialized or when the communication address of said electronic device is changed after said electronic device was started up, rebooted or initialized last, the entries of said transmission destination table are initialized to set the transmission destination addresses of the entries to predetermined initial addresses,receiving a first request from a first computer to change the transmission destination address of a particular entry in plurality of entries in the transmission destination table to a first address, wherein the particular entry has a status indicator that indicates whether rewriting of the transmission destination address is possible;changing the transmission designation address of the particular entry to the first address;transmitting a first response when the changing of the transmission designation address of the particular entry to the first address ended normally;subsequently receiving a second request from a second computer to change the transmission destination address of the particular entry to a second address different from the first address; andtransmitting a second response to indicate an error in response to the second request including when the transmission destination address in the second request is a valid transmission destination address. 4. An electronic device monitoring method for an electronic device monitoring system where an electronic device is monitored from a plurality of computers through a network, comprising: initializing, when the electronic device is started up, rebooted or initialized or when the communication address of the electronic device is changed after the electronic device was started up, rebooted or initialized last, entries of the transmission destination table to set the transmission destination addresses of the entries to predetermined initial addresses;changing a transmission destination address of a particular entry of the transmission destination table after receiving a first request from a first computer to change the transmission destination address of the particular entry of the transmission destination table to a first address, wherein the particular entry has a status indicator that indicates whether rewriting of the transmission destination address is possible;transmitting a first response when the changing of the transmission designation address of the particular entry to the first address ended normally;transmitting a second response to indicate an error in response to subsequently receiving a second request from a second computer to change the transmission destination address of the particular entry to a second address, the second address being, different from the first address, including when the transmission destination address in the second request is a valid transmission destination address.
