Abstract

A system includes storage and control units in a printing apparatus, obtainment and first transmission units in a first computer, and a second transmission unit in a second computer. The storage unit stores print restriction information defining a setting content to permit or restrict printing for each user. The print restriction information of a first computer user is obtained. A first print job including the obtained print restriction information, a first print setting, a second print job including identification information of a second computer user and a second print setting are transmitted. The control unit determines whether to permit or restrict the first print job based on the first print setting and the first print job print restriction information, and determines whether to permit or restrict the second print job based on the second print setting and print restriction information specified by using the second print job user identification information.
