1. A print server that executes predetermined image processing, transmits image data after the image processing to an image forming apparatus, and causes the image forming apparatus to print an image based on the image data after the image processing, the print server comprising:
a paper feed setting acquisition unit to acquire a setting value of a priority paper feed source setting from the image forming apparatus; and
an image processing unit to specify a print sheet orientation of a paper feed source designated as a priority paper feed source based on the acquired setting value, and generate the image data after the image processing by matching an orientation of the image based on the image data after the image processing with an orientation corresponding to the specified print sheet orientation,
wherein the paper feed setting acquisition unit acquires the setting value of the priority paper feed source setting from the image forming apparatus when a specific paper feed source in the image forming apparatus is not designated in the paper feed source setting in a print request, and does not acquire the setting value of the priority paper feed source setting from the image forming apparatus when the specific paper feed source in the image forming apparatus is designated in the paper feed source setting in the print request, and
wherein when the specific paper feed source in the image forming apparatus is designated in the paper feed source setting in the print request, the image processing unit specifies the print sheet orientation of the paper feed source specified in the paper feed source setting in the print request and generates the image data after the image processing by matching an orientation of the image based on the image data after the image processing with an orientation corresponding to the specified print sheet orientation.
