In a system for receiving a television broadcast, when a printer is
connected to a receiving apparatus for use, a printer driver which
controls the printer is automatically registered. For this purpose, a
television broadcast receiving apparatus includes a unit for setting
download information for a printer driver to be retrieved, a unit for
retrieving a printer driver file which is specified by the set download
information with the television broadcast, and a unit for installing the
printer driver file into a storage unit so as to be executable.
