Abstract
A load on a network image server is reduced during print services via a network. In a print system, images used for editing by a client computer are changed to images of a low resolution, editing information representative of a history of editing and a print order are transmitted to a print controller, and the images are printed by an optimum print server. Images of a high resolution used for printing are not transmitted from the client so that a load on the client can be reduced and a load on data transmission of the network can also be reduced.
