Abstract

An image processing apparatus is connected via a network to a terminal device having a recording medium loaded therein, receives a remote login from the terminal device, and executes an image processing job. When an operator who has logged in to the image processing apparatus is the same person as a user who is remotely logged in to the image processing apparatus from the terminal device, the image processing apparatus performs one of operations A and B after the image processing apparatus is granted access permission by the terminal device with use of a network address of the terminal device, which is acquired upon the remote login, the operation A being to acquire an image file stored in the recording medium, the operation B being to cause an image file stored in the apparatus to be stored in the recording medium.
