Abstract

An image processing system in which input image information that is read from a document original is sujected to image processing on the basis of machine operating instruction information that is defined by a job control sheet, to obtain output image information. Machine operating instruction information borne by the job control sheet is read and interpreted, and it is judged whether or not the interpreted instruction is executable. When the machine operating instruction is executable, image processing of a batch of document originals following the job control sheet is executed to generate output image information, whereas, if the machine operating instruction is unexecutable, the batch of document original is fed forward without being processed up to the last document original that immediately precedes a subsequent job control sheet.
