Abstract
An image forming apparatus, a client PC, and a thin client PC are connected to a server device via a network. The client PC, or the thin client PC, transmits a printing instruction to the server device and the server device transmits the printing instruction to the image forming apparatus. In a thin client environment, a network between the server device and the image forming apparatus can be a narrowband network. Therefore, the server device compresses the whole printing instruction and then transmits the compressed printing instruction to the image forming apparatus.
