Abstract

A printing system includes a server system that receives instruction data based on a voice instruction concerning printing accepted by a voice control device, transmits message data based on the received instruction data, and specifies content data. If the instruction data includes information indicating a first content type, message data to inquire about a content setting item is transmitted, and if the instruction data includes information indicating a second content type different from the first content type, the message data to inquire about the content setting item is not transmitted. The content data of the first content type is specified based on instruction data received in a case where the voice instruction concerning the content setting item of the first content type is accepted, and the printing apparatus executes printing based on print data generated based on the specified content data of the first content type.
