Abstract
A digital multi-function peripheral as an image processing apparatus stores configuration history files representing contents of processes executed in the past into an external storage device connectable to an external I/F. If the external storage device is connected to the external I/F, the configuration history files are acquired from the external storage device, and process contents represented by the configuration history files acquired from the external storage device connected to the external I/F are presented as past process contents to the user. If the user selects one process content from the presented past process contents, the same configuration as the selected process content is performed.
Claims20
