To easily provide services in response to service requests from client apparatuses on a network, a service providing system includes a client (100), printer (200), and server (300) connected to the network. In executing a job, the client (100) notifies the printer (200) of the first service content required for the job. The printer (200) determines whether it can process alone the first service content notified from the client (100). If the first service content cannot be processed alone, the printer (200) searches for the server (300), on the network, which can process the second service content required to execute the job. <IMAGE>
