Abstract
A printing apparatus, which is capable of making effective use of the extended setting set up once without performing the extended setting each time, and is capable of improving user'"'"'s convenience. A printing apparatus is connected to an information processing apparatus that instructs printing execution, is connected to a server via a network, and executes printing according to a print job generated by the information processing apparatus. A request unit requests an extended print setting from the server when receiving a request of the extended print setting that extends a predetermined basic print setting from the information processing apparatus. A holding unit holds extended print setting information showing the extended print setting corresponding to the printing apparatus received from the server in response to the request. A sending unit sends the extended print setting information held by the holding unit to the information processing apparatus.
