Abstract
A printing apparatus is capable of being in a first connection state in which the printing apparatus is communicably connected to an information processing apparatus via a server and a second connection state in which the printing apparatus is communicably connected to the information processing apparatus without using the server. A printer information storage section stores a cloud icon indicating a printer in the first connection state and a local icon which is an icon indicating the printer in the second connection state and is different in visual recognition from the cloud icon. A network communication section transmits first information including the cloud icon to a cloud print service in a case where the printer is in the first connection state and transmits second information including the local icon to a client computer in a case where the printer is in the second connection state.
