Abstract
A printing system includes a printing apparatus including a carriage capable of loading a plurality of types of print heads, and a connected host device. In a case where the print head loaded on the carriage corresponds to a first head configuration, the host device is provided with a first printing service using a first identifier to identify the printing apparatus, and in a case where the print head loaded on the carriage corresponds to a second head configuration being different from the first head configuration, the host device is provided with a second printing service using a second identifier being different from the first identifier. The host device obtains printability information indicating a printable condition with the printing apparatus, sets the printable condition with the printing apparatus based on the obtained printability information, and transmits a printing job based on the set condition to the printing apparatus.
