US 2013/0258387 A1 · IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM

Abstract

There is provided an image processing apparatus including: a receiving unit configured to receive a job from an external apparatus; an image processing unit configured to perform image processing on the basis of the job received by the receiving unit; and a control device. The control device configured to perform: an establishing process of establishing an allowance status in which the image processing apparatus is allowed to be designated as a job input destination from a user, with respect to the external apparatus; and a restricting process of restricting the image processing apparatus from being in the allowance status in a case where the image processing apparatus is in a restriction status in which the image processing is restricted.
