    摘要: An information processing system includes a server system receives usage history information and identification information of an image forming apparatus, stores, in a memory, the identification information and user information in association with each other, with the user information including destination information of a notification, and obtains the user information from the memory, based on the received identification information. In addition, from the received usage history information, a value related to image forming based on an instruction from a predetermined application included in an information processing apparatus capable of communicating with the image forming apparatus is obtained, and a notification including predetermined information, based on the obtained destination information can be output. The notification is output in a case where the value does not satisfy a predetermined condition, and the notification is not output in a case where the value satisfies the predetermined condition.
