First Claim
Patent Images
1. An image processing apparatus, comprising:
- an image data acquiring unit for acquiring image data;
a dot pattern detecting unit for determining whether the image data acquired by the image data acquiring unit includes a predefined recognition dot pattern designed to prohibit an image data outputting or not;
a recognition mark to cancel an image data outputting prohibition detecting unit for determining whether the image data acquired by the image data acquiring unit includes a predefined recognition mark to cancel an image data outputting prohibition or not; and
a control unit for prohibiting outputting of the image data if the dot pattern detecting unit detects the recognition dot pattern designed to prohibit an image data outputting, and permitting the outputting of the image data if the recognition mark to cancel an image data outputting prohibition detecting unit detects the recognition mark to cancel an image data outputting prohibition.

Abstract
Devices and methods wherein if a predefined recognition dot pattern designed to prohibit an image data outputting is detected from image data acquired by an image data acquiring unit, outputting of the image data is prohibited, and if a predefined recognition mark to cancel image data outputting prohibition is detected, the outputting of the image data is permitted.
