An information processing apparatus is configured to control an operation to determine a type of a printing medium to be printed by a printing unit, determine a type of printing medium indicated by information input by an input unit as the type of the printing medium to be printed, and be capable of executing a measurement mode and a designation mode. In the measurement mode, the type of the printing medium to be printed is determined by using a measurement result and a reference characteristic values set in advance. In the designation mode, the type of the printing medium to be printed is determined without using the measurement result. The information processing apparatus is configured to, even in the designation mode, change the reference characteristic value set in advance for the type of printing medium indicated by the information input by the input unit based on the measurement result.
