Abstract
An image processing method for processing an input job in parallel by a plurality of color image output apparatus, includes a developing step of developing input image data into bit map image data, wherein the developing step includes first and second modes, the first mode develops the input image data a plurality of times by using a color processing condition matching each of the plurality of color image output apparatus, and the second mode develops the input image data by using an optional color processing condition and outputs the developed result to the plurality of color image output apparatus. A user is allowed to select either a high speed process or a high precision process.
