This invention can cope with various user needs and use cases related to a holding function and can prevent any situation in which, for example, even when the holding function is disabled, an external device continuously inputs, to a printing apparatus, jobs which require use of the holding function. This invention also prevents the data of a job that requires use of the holding function from remaining in a memory when the holding function is disabled. This invention prevents data that will never be used from remaining in a storage area when the holding function is disabled. A printing system, according to the invention, enables a printing unit to execute a process of a job that requires use of the holding function of causing a storage unit to hold data of a job to be processed. The printing system includes a control unit which disables the holding function. If it is determined that the holding function is disabled, the control unit cancels execution, by the printing unit, of the process of the job that requires use of the holding function.
