This invention provides a technique which allows the user to select whether or not to make print settings without any special operation such as key operations or button operations upon printing information held by a mobile terminal using a printer. To this end, in a case where it is detected that a mobile terminal is located with an NFC communication range, an NFC communication is established to exchange information so as to prepare for transition to a BT communication, information to be printed is received via the BT communication, thus printing the information. At this time, only in a case where an established state of the NFC communication is continued for a predetermined period of time since the NFC communication is established, a detailed print setting menu is displayed.
