Abstract:
1. An image processing apparatus comprising: an information reader which reads job data from a portable storage medium in which the job data is stored; a job executor which executes a job based on the job data read by said information reader; an information recorder which records in the portable storage medium interruption information that the job is interrupted, the interruption information being related with the job data stored in the portable storage medium, in response to an interruption of the job; a detector which detects that the portable storage medium is mounted onto the image processing apparatus; a discriminator which discriminates whether or not the interruption information is recorded with being related with the job data read from the mounted portable storage medium by said information reader; a mode checker which checks a mode being set in the job data read by said information reader in case where said discriminator discriminates that the interruption information is recorded with being related with the job data stored in the portable storage medium; a function checker which checks a mode that is executable in accordance with a present apparatus configuration of the image processing apparatus in case where said discriminator discriminates that the interruption information is recorded with being related with the job data stored in the portable storage medium; a decider which decides whether or not the image processing apparatus is able to execute the mode set in the job data based on a result of the check done by said function checker; and a changer which changes the mode set in the job data to the mode that is executable in the image processing apparatus in case where the decider decides that the mode set in the job data is not able to execute, and wherein said job executor executes a job in accordance with the job data in which the mode set in the job data is changed to the mode that is executable in the image processing apparatus by said changer.
