An image forming apparatus stores a saving instruction for a script and data containing its identification information in a Universal Serial Bus (USB) storage, in the case where the image forming apparatus detects that the script and the data required for software installation corresponding to itself does not exist in the USB storage when the USB storage is connected. A computer acquires a script and data corresponding to identification information of an image forming apparatus contained in a saving instruction, and saves them to the USB storage, in the case where the computer detects that the saving instruction exists in the USB storage when the USB storage is connected. The image forming apparatus then executes software installation using the script and the data contained in the USB storage, when this USB storage containing the saved script and data corresponding to the image forming apparatus is connected.
