Abstract:
A print control server that controls printing via an SNS includes a display controller that causes, when a printer registration request is received from an account of a user of the SNS, an SNS server that manages the SNS to display, on a terminal device operated by the user, an input screen on which an e-mail address that uniquely identifies a printer is entered, an acquisition unit that acquires the e-mail address entered on the input screen, and a registration unit that refers to a database which specifies, in advance, a correspondence relationship with an e-mail address with respect to a plurality of printers and that registers, when the e-mail address acquired by the acquisition unit matches any e-mail address specified in the database, the account in association with the printer identified by the e-mail address acquired by the acquisition unit.
