The present invention provides a combined equipment selection system which is capable of reducing the load on the host computer and securely obtaining the user information. A user terminal device 1 comprises a user information memory means 13 for storing the user information, a constant data memory means 14 for storing constant data, a combined equipment selection means 15 and a selection information display control means 16. The combined equipment selection means 15 carries out a selection operation which selects one or more other combined equipment different from the service equipment and suitable for being combined with a service equipment, based on the model information and operational conditions of the service equipment as well as the constant data stored in the constant data memory means. The selection information display control means 16 requests a display permission from the host computer 3 for displaying the selection information onto the display section on condition that the user information and selection information are transmitted to the host computer 3, and displays the selection information onto the display section 12 only when the display permission is obtained from the host computer 3.
