Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes: a job acquirer that acquires a job; a function executor that executes a function requested for the acquired job; and a completion notification selector that selects a timing for transmitting, to an information processing apparatus, a process completion notification indicating normal termination of execution of the function after the function is executed. The timing for transmitting the process completion notification to the information processing apparatus includes a job execution completion time that is a time when the execution of the function normally terminates and a job acquisition completion time that is a time before the execution of the function starts. In a status where there is a function currently being executed and no new job is acquirable, the completion notification selector selects the job acquisition completion time as the timing for transmitting the process completion notification to the information processing apparatus.
