Image processing apparatus presentation method, image processing apparatus, and image processing system

An image processing apparatus presentation method comprising:

• a first information processing apparatus selecting an apparatus-to-be-used from among a plurality of image processing apparatuses that are communicable through a first communication line;
• the first information processing apparatus receiving terminal identification information which identifies a second information processing apparatus carried by a user, from the second information processing apparatus through a wireless second communication line;
• the first information processing apparatus transmitting location presentation information regarding presentation of a location of the apparatus-to-be-used, to the second information processing apparatus through the second communication line;
• the first information processing apparatus transmitting the terminal identification information to the apparatus-to-be-used through the first communication line, and the apparatus-to-be-used receiving the terminal identification information from the first information processing apparatus;
• an image processing apparatus receiving the terminal identification information from the second information processing apparatus through the second communication line;
• the image processing apparatus determining whether a user-in-proximity state has been established where the terminal identification information received from the first information processing apparatus and the terminal identification information received from the second information processing apparatus match each other;
• and
• the image processing apparatus executing a guiding process of guiding the user to the image processing apparatus when the user-in-proximity state has been established.
