Apparatus and method for image processing and print system
First Claim
1. An image processor comprising:
- an output device which processes input data and outputs the processed data;
a detector which detects whether data of a specified pattern is included in the input data or in the processed data, in parallel to the data processing by said output device; and
a stop controller which makes said output device stop to output the processed data at an irregular timing after said detector detects the specified pattern.

Abstract
In an image processor in a print system, an output device processes input data and outputs the processed data, while a detector detects whether data of a specified pattern is included in the input data or in the processed data, in parallel to the data processing by the output device. A stop controller makes the output device stop to output the processed data at an irregular timing after the detector detects the specified pattern. The printer prints an image on a sheet of paper, based on the data outputted by the output device. Thus when the specified pattern in an image is detected, the printing is stopped but the stop position becomes irregular.

12. A storage medium storing a computer-executable program comprising the steps of:
-
processing input data and outputs the processed data; and
detecting whether a specified pattern is included in the input data or in the processed data, in parallel to the data processing of the input data;
wherein the output of the processed data is stopped at an irregular timing when the specified pattern is detected.
