A printing system comprises one or more data sources for generating print data and for sending the print data to one of a plurality of printing units by wireless communication and a specifying circuit, provided for each of said data sources, for specifying the printing-unit to which the data source corresponding to the specifying circuit should transmit the print data, wherein the specifying circuit specifies the printing unit to which the print data should be transmitted on the basis of information regarding each of the printing units which is transmitted from each printing unit by the wireless communication. The information regarding the printing unit includes printing speed information, paper size information, information indicating whether the printing unit can print both sides of a recording paper or not, or information indicating whether the printing unit is in a busy state or a ready state. The specifying circuit transmits an ID code to identify the specified printing unit to the data source corresponding to the specifying circuit.
