ABSTRACT:
The present invention is intended to improve the processing efficiency by shortening a time taken until completion of return processing when image processing is carried out via an external storage device such as a USB memory. There is provided an image processing apparatus including: a communication section capable of data communication with the external storage device; a detection section detecting that data communication with the external storage device is possible; an image forming section; a document reading section; and a control section performing return processing for returning the image processing section and/or the document reading section from a processing-disabled state in which image processing is impossible to a processing-enabled state in which image processing is possible, wherein if the detection section detects that data communication with the external storage device is possible, the control section determines whether the external device is an external storage device or not, and performs the return processing if it is determined that the external device is an external storage device. The time taken until completion of return processing is thus shortened to improve the processing efficiency.
