This invention relates to a printing apparatus or information processing apparatus, which is connected to a peripheral device management apparatus and holds updatable resource data. The printing apparatus or information processing apparatus asynchronously receives an output job and resource data used upon processing the output job from the peripheral device management apparatus connected to it. Upon receiving the resource data, reception of a new output job after the reception of the resource data is stopped. When it is determined that the process of a print job, which has already been received and queued, is complete, the held resource data is updated by the resource data received by a reception unit.
