Abstract: An image forming apparatus configured to communicate with a first cloud cooperation system receives selection of a file stored in a cloud storage service, acquires the selected file via the first cloud cooperation system, performs control to execute printing of the acquired file, receives input of authentication information to be used for connection to a second cloud cooperation system different from the first cloud cooperation system, and transmits information about a result of the executed printing to the second cloud cooperation system via the first cloud cooperation system by using the input authentication information.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a mechanism for providing print services applicable to a printer to be used by a user at the time of printing in a metaverse. According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a system includes a printing apparatus, a client terminal, and a server for providing a user with a metaverse via the client terminal. The system includes a plurality of memories and a plurality of processors that are configured to receive, from the user, an operation for using a print service for a content in the metaverse; upon reception of an operation for using the print service, acquire information about the printing apparatus from the printing apparatus; and provide a print service applicable to the printing apparatus in the metaverse based on the information about the printing apparatus.

Abstract: The first printing system communicable with the client terminal and the authorization system requests the authorization system to acquire authorization information to the second printing system, receives authorization information from the authorization system to the second printing system, and stores the received authorization information. When the first printing system receives the print job from the client terminal, the first printing system transmits the print job to the second printing system by using the stored authorization information. A second printing system communicable with the image forming apparatus receives the print job transmitted from the first printing system and transmits the received print job to the image forming apparatus.
