Abstract
A server system that causes one of a plurality of printers to print an image received from an information processing apparatus. A virtual printer determines whether or not a printer capable of performing printing to which both of a first print setting and a second print setting are applied is included in the plurality of printers. In a case where it is determined that a printer capable of performing printing to which the first and second print settings are applied is not included in the plurality of printers, information indicating that the first print setting and the second print setting conflicting with each other is stored as prohibited settings information. The print settings are controlled based on the prohibited settings information.
