Abstract

This invention provides a novel mechanism to suppress a decline in usability when, for example, a user of a cloud printing service changes their printing method. [Solution] The present invention provides an information processing device that, when a print command is issued using a print queue selected by the user, controls the display of a selection screen which includes options for allowing the user to select a printing method when performing print processing based on the selected print queue, and a setting for whether to print using the same printing method next time; and transmits a print job to a print service according to the selected printing method, wherein the control means controls the display of the selection screen when the setting to print using the same printing method next time is made on the selection screen, and when the user issues the next print command using the print queue, the display of the selection screen is not performed.
