Abstract

When a recording medium is set in a slot of a CD-ROM drive, a DVD drive or a smart media drive, a system control section of a printing apparatus controls a display control section to cause a display panel to display selection items. When one of the selection items displayed on the display panel is selected by pushing, and a “PRINT” button is also pushed, the system control section acquires information on the selected item associated with the recording medium from a server apparatus and controls a print control section to execute a printing control.
