An information processing apparatus includes an authenticating unit, a detection unit, and a controller. The authenticating unit authenticates an operator. The detection unit detects whether or not there is any set value that has been changed from an initial value among one or more set values for one or more setting items. The controller performs control so as not to change the one or more set values for the one or more setting items to one or more set values registered for the operator authenticated by the authenticating unit in the case where the detection unit detects that there is any set value that has been changed from the initial value.

An information processing apparatus includes a display unit, a changing unit, an image display unit, and an update unit. The display unit displays a first display area and a second display area. The second display area is an area in which a display element representing a function is disposed. The changing unit changes a setting value of the function to a different setting value in accordance with a received instruction to change a setting. When the setting value of the function is changed, the image display unit displays an image representing the function whose setting value is changed, in the first display area. While the image in the first display area remains to be displayed, the update unit changes the display of the second display area in which information about the function is displayed, in response to a received instruction to update the display.

An image processing apparatus includes an image reception unit, a determination unit, a display unit, a correction accepting unit and a criterion modifying unit. The image reception unit receives a plurality of images. The determination unit determines whether each image received by the image reception unit corresponds to a separator image that represents a separator of a document based on a criterion and outputs a detection result. The display unit displays the detection result output by the determination unit. The correction accepting unit accepts correction of the displayed detection result in accordance with an operation performed by a user. The criterion modifying unit modifies the criterion based on the accepted correction. The determination unit re-determines whether each image received by the image reception unit corresponds to the separator image based on the criterion after the criterion is modified by the criterion modifying unit.

An image processing apparatus includes a controller programmed to receive image data and also receive, from a user, an input number of separators included in the received image data. The controller detects a number of times a separator is included in the received image data based on criteria for detecting the separator, and determines, based on the detected number of times and the input number of separators, whether the criteria needs to be modified. In response to determining that the criteria needs to be modified, the controller modifies the criteria for detecting the separator and repeats detection of a number of times the separator is included in the received image data based on the modified criteria for detecting the separator.

The inclination reception unit receives inclination when the information image scan unit scans the information image. The date and time reception unit receives a date and time when the information image scan unit scans the information image. The date and time extraction unit extracts a date and time when the information image scanned by the information image scan unit is printed. The determination unit determines whether or not to adjust a size of a pixel cluster constituting the information image.
