Claim:
1. An image processing system comprising a terminal apparatus and multiple image processing apparatuses all being capable of connecting to each other via a network, the terminal apparatus comprising: a hardware processor configured to select a target identification operation proving the identity of a target image processing apparatus, so that the target image processing apparatus could be identified among the multiple image processing apparatuses, the target identification operation being selected out of a plurality of target identification operations, each of the plurality of target identification operations proving the identity of the target processing apparatus; a display which displays information about the target identification operation determined by the hardware processor; and the hardware processor being configured to instruct the multiple image processing apparatuses to return answer information notifying that an operation corresponding to the target identification operation has been performed when they detect that this operation has been performed, the multiple image processing apparatuses each comprising: a detector which detects that the operation corresponding to the target identification operation has been performed; and a transmitter which transmits to the terminal apparatus, the answer information and apparatus information proving the identity of the image processing apparatus itself, wherein the terminal apparatus further comprises: a receiver which receives the answer information and the apparatus information from the image processing apparatus; and the hardware processor being configured to identify the target image processing apparatus based on the answer information and the apparatus information received by the receiver.
