Abstract:
An image-processing apparatus includes a storage and a controller. The storage stores therein firmware for executing a plurality of image processes. The firmware includes a plurality of sets of sub firmware for executing respective ones of the image processes. The controller is capable of executing the image processes in accordance with the firmware. The controller is configured to perform: receiving update information about an update of the firmware from a server; when receiving an instruction to execute one of the image processes, determining whether the received update information includes specific information about an update of specific sub firmware which is one of the plurality of sets of sub firmware and is for executing the one of the image processes; and when determining that the received update information includes the specific information, notifying of notification information about the update of the specific sub firmware on the basis of the specific information.
