Abstract:
An image processing apparatus determines whether each of pixels in a scanned image is a color pixel or a monochrome pixel, determines whether each of blocks including the multiple pixels in the scanned image is a color block or a monochrome block, based on determination results of the respective pixels, and determines that the scanned image is a color image in a case where an arrangement pattern of blocks determined to be color blocks matches a predetermined pattern.
