An object is to match the texture of a printed material, in addition to the tint, between different printing devices. In order to implement this object, a printed material output by a destination device is scanned and whether a certain area in image data obtained by the scan is an area printed in K color on the printed material or an area printed in CMY color mixture is determined. Then, based on the determination results, a printing parameter is determined.
