PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve print efficiency by allowing an image forming apparatus to store print data in previewing, which is stored in a printer server, and performing printing by using the print data held in the image forming apparatus when printing is indicated in the image forming apparatus.

SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus receives a list of bibliographic information of the print data from a print management server, obtains the print data corresponding to the bibliographic information designated by a user, allows a storage part to store the data, and also displays the data. When printing is indicated to the print data corresponding to the bibliographic information designated by the user, printing is performed by using the print data of the image forming apparatus when the print data stored in the image forming apparatus exists, and printing is performed by using the print data managed by the print management server when the print data does not exist.
