Abstract
An Order icon is displayed on a user terminal and image data sets to be printed are registered by drag-and-drop operations for the image data sets onto the Order icon. By opening the Order icon, thumbnail images of the registered image data sets are displayed, and print sizes and quantities are input to generate order information. The order information is transferred to an order reception server together with the image data sets, and further transferred to a DPE store where the image data sets are printed.
