A radiographic imaging device has: a generating unit that generates image data expressing a radiographic image formed by irradiated radiation a first communicating unit at which wireless communication is possible selectively in either of a direct communication mode or an indirect communication mode a storing unit that stores a setting of a communication mode and a control unit that, if a setting to carry out communication in the direct communication mode has been made, controls the first communicating unit to carry out wireless communication in the direct communication mode, and, if a setting to carry out communication in the indirect communication mode has been made, controls the first communicating unit to attempt wireless communication in the indirect communication mode with a control device that controls the radiographic imaging device, and, if communication is impossible, controls the first communicating unit to carry out wireless communication in the direct communication mode.
