1. An information processing apparatus connected to an image input apparatus which is capable of executing predetermined image processing on input image data and outputting the processed image data, the information processing apparatus comprising:

  • first storing means for storing image data output from the image input apparatus;

    instruction input means for inputting setting information for image processing according to an instruction from an operator; and

    image processing means for executing image processing that can be executed by the image input apparatus, on the image data stored by said first storing means based on the setting information input by said instruction input means;

    selecting means for selecting either a first processing mode in which the image input apparatus executes the image processing on the input image data or a second processing mode in which said image processing means executes the image processing on the image data stored by said first storing means, according to an instruction input by the operator; and

    second storing means for storing the image data on which the image processing is executed,wherein said second storing means is operable, when the second processing mode is selected, to store the image data after said first storing means stores the image data output from the image input apparatus and said image processing means executes the image processing on the image data stored by said first storing means, and operable, when the first processing mode is selected, to store the image data, on which the image input apparatus executes the image processing, output from the image input apparatus, without the image data output from the image input apparatus being stored by said first storing means.
