Summary:This invention enables to change the settings of each hot folder when the configuration of a printer has changed. In order to achieve the object, this invention provides a client for transmitting electronic data to a printer via a hot folder which sets attribute information. The client includes an unit which detects a change in processing contents executable by the printer, an unit which holds information about an operation of the client upon detection in association with the hot folder, an unit which determines whether the printer can execute output processing complying with the attribute information by comparing the changed processing contents with the attribute information set in the hot folder, and an unit which controls the operation of the client based on the information about the operation held in association with the hot folder which sets the attribute information determined not to allow the execution.
