Abstract
There is disclosed an image processing apparatus for solving a problem that much time is required for judging specific information when the specific information such as a digital watermark is judged and printing is controlled, the apparatus comprising: indication means for indicating a mode from a first printing mode and a second printing mode higher in speed than the first printing mode; judgment means for judging whether or not specific information exists in an original; and printing means for, when the indication means indicates the second printing mode, printing an image in accordance with the original without performing the judgment by the judgment means.
