Abstract
A printing apparatus is provided. A mount unit is able to mount a consumable. A communication unit is able to communicate with a server system. A request unit requests, to the server system via the communication unit, service-related information related to the consumable. A reception unit receives, via the communication unit, the service-related information transmitted from the server system with respect to the request. A determination unit determines, in a case in which a state of the communication unit has shifted from a first state in which communication with the server system is disabled to a second state in which communication with the server system is enabled, whether a request for the service-related information by the request unit is required, based on a reception history of the service-related information of the reception unit.
