A printing system and a printing method are provided that automatically determine a preferentially executed print job to perform printing when a requested number of prints exceeds an upper limit value of permitted number of prints. The printing system and method include a user terminal, a print apparatus, a manager terminal, and a management server connected to a network, and an upper limit value of permitted number of prints is set thereon for each user. The printing management server includes a print number calculating portion that calculates the printable number of sheets from the remainder of the permitted number of prints of a user and the number of prints necessary for a plurality of print job requests from the user, and a print job determining portion that automatically determines a prioritized print job if the printable number of sheets is insufficient.
