Image Processing Apparatus

An image processing apparatus, comprising:

• a job inputting section to input an outputting job based on which an image is to be outputted, therefrom, while correlating user identification information of a user, who instruct an operation for implementing the outputting job, and the outputting job with each other;
• a job implementation order controlling section to control an implementation order of outputting jobs, each of which is the outputting job inputted from the job inputting section;
• a job implementing section to sequentially implement the outputting jobs one by one, according to the implementation order of the outputting jobs;
• a user-identification information inputting section to input the user identification information, therefrom;
• and
• a control section to conduct an updating operation for putting forward a turn for implementing a specific outputting job, which is currently in a standby state for waiting its turn to be commenced by the job implementing section, in the implementation order of the outputting jobs, based on an inputting status of the user identification information inputted from the user-identification information inputting section and correlated with the specific outputting job.
