Abstract

See full text

When an image processing apparatus having a binarizing unit for binarizing by a hardware process allows an image signal received from an electronic equipment having a binarizing unit for binarizing by a software process to be printed from a predetermined printer, it is an object to efficiently convert a multivalue image signal to a binary image signal and to print. To accomplish this object, either one of a mode to transmit the multivalue image signal to the image processing apparatus and a mode to binarize the multivalue image signal by the electronic equipment and, after that, transmit the binary image signal to the image processing apparatus is selected. In accordance with the selection result, the multivalue image signal or the binary image signal binarized by the electronic equipment is transmitted to the image processing apparatus.
