<p>Terminals, printing apparatus, and digital copying machines are connected to one network N. A document managing portion (402) of the printing apparatus stores document data received through the network N to a document data storing portion (419), and generates managing data of document data so as to be stored in a document managing table (420). When an error processing portion (404) detects the occurrence of an error with reference to a table (421) during the printing of document data, an error processing portion (405) determines the other printing apparatus for a substitutive printing with reference to various kinds of tables (422, 423, and 424), and transmits document data. A report sheet issuing portion (406) generates a report sheet image showing a name of a substitutive printing apparatus, a current state of the apparatus having an error, measures to remove the error, etc., and a printing portion (403) prints the report sheet image. <IMAGE></p> |
