Stage: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem in which in cloud printing, even if a real printer is not associated with a virtual printer, a client can send a job to the virtual printer, but when the real printer is subsequently associated and actual printing is performed, there may be a mismatch between the print job and the capabilities of the real printer, and as a result, a print result desired by a user cannot be obtained.SOLUTION: A first server system that provides a first cloud print service that provides print data to a printer registers the first cloud print service as a destination printer with respect to a second server system that provides a second cloud print service, acquires print data from the second server system that has registered the first cloud print service as the destination printer by using an IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) operation, and provides print data based on the acquired print data to the printer.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6 (Grant)
