Disclosed is an image processing apparatus, which makes it possible to put an implementation order of an outputting job, inputted by a user and currently in the standby state, forward, even if the concerned user does not conduct specific operations. The apparatus includes: a job inputting section to input an outputting job, while correlating it with user identification information; a job implementation order controlling section to control an implementation order of outputting jobs, based on priority degrees of the outputting jobs; a job implementing section to implement the outputting jobs according to the implementation order of them; a user-identification information inputting section; and a control section to conduct an updating operation for heightening a priority degree of a specific outputting job currently in the standby state, based on an inputting status of the user identification information inputted from the user-identification information inputting section and correlated with the specific outputting job.
