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

An image processing system including an image reading apparatus and an information processing apparatus, the image processing system comprising circuitry configured to:

• set a setting value for each of a plurality of setting items regarding an input image generation process;
• receive designation of one or more setting items on which determination is to be performed as to whether the setting value matches a characteristic of an input image obtained by imaging a medium from among the plurality of setting items;
• acquire the input image;
• perform determination of whether the setting value matches the characteristic of the input image for each of the designated one or more setting items;
• and
• notify information regarding a result of the determination or control an apparatus that generated the input image to stop an image generation process when the result of the determination indicates that the setting value does not match the characteristic of the input image.
