Abstract:
An image processing apparatus includes an input unit configured to receive an user's input, a display configured to display a status of the image processing apparatus, and a controller configured to limit an operation of the input unit. The controller is configured, if the image processing apparatus is not in progress of any image processing when a certain condition is satisfied, to display information of the limitation of the operation of the input unit at the display. The controller is configured, if the image processing apparatus is in process of an image processing when the certain condition is satisfied, to display a status of the image process at the display, and then to display the information of the limitation at the display after the image process is completed.
