摘要

A method and a system for printing a file by an e-mail are provided to output a large size printing file irrespective of the size of the file attached to the e-mail and improve convenience by enabling a printing device to automatically process printing through a link of the e-mail. A client(100) transfers the file, and a document server(300) receives and stores the file. An e-mail server(200) receives the e-mail including link information of the file transmitted to the document server from the client and transmits the e-mail to the printing device(400). The printing device receives the file from the document server corresponding to the document server by connecting to the e-mail server and prints the received file. The client checks whether the e-mail server is able to receive the file and has a capacity capable of receiving the file, and adds printing setting information of the file to the e-mail. The printing device determines to print the file by using the link information or the printing setting information of the file.
