Abstract
An image processing apparatus which reads an original to generate monochrome image data, comprises a determination unit configured to determine which of a first instruction to read the original using RGB sensors or a second instruction to read the original using a BW sensor is input; a reading unit configured to read the original using the RGB sensors when the determination unit determined that the first instruction is input, and read the original using the BW sensor when the determination unit determined that the second instruction is input; and a generation unit configured to generate monochrome image data by reading the original by the reading unit using the respective sensors.
Claims8
An image processing apparatus which reads an original to generate monochrome image data, comprising:
- a determination unit configured to determine which of a first instruction to read the original using RGB sensors or a second instruction to read the original using a BW sensor is input;
- a reading unit configured to read the original using the RGB sensors when the determination unit determined that the first instruction is input, and read the original using the BW sensor when the determination unit determined that the second instruction is input;
- and
- a generation unit configured to generate monochrome image data by reading the original by said reading unit using the respective sensors.
A method of controlling an image processing apparatus which reads an original to generate monochrome image data, the method comprising:
- a determination step of causing a determination unit of the image processing apparatus to determine which of a first instruction to read the original using RGB sensors or a second instruction to read the original using a BW sensor is input;
- a reading step of causing a reading unit of the image processing apparatus to read the original using the RGB sensors when the determination step determined that the first instruction is input, and read the original in monochrome using the BW sensor when the determination step determined that the second instruction is input;
- and
- a generation step of causing a generation unit of the image processing apparatus to generate monochrome image data by reading the original in the reading step using the respective sensors.
A computer-readable storage medium storing a control program which can be stored in a computer-readable storage medium and causes a computer to execute an image processing apparatus control method, the control program causing the computer to execute
- a determination step of determining which of a first instruction to read the original using RGB sensors or a second instruction to read the original using a BW sensor is input,
- a reading step of reading the original using the RGB sensors when it is determined that the first instruction is input in the determination step, and reading the original in monochrome using the BW sensor when it is determined that the second instruction is input in the determination step, and
- a generation step of generating monochrome image data by reading the original in the reading step using the respective sensors.
