Abstract
In a printing system, feature information of a printing medium set on a printer is acquired from the printer. Information associated with the type of the printing medium is input, and the information associated with the type of the printing medium is registered in connection with the acquired feature information of the printing medium. Thus, an environment is provided which allows a user to make registration of additional information associated with a particular printing medium thereby making it possible to automatically and precisely make setting associated with the particular printing medium.
