Abstract
This invention relates to an image processing apparatus capable of processing plural jobs at a high rate. The image processing apparatus is comprised of first and second buffer memory devices, which are independent of each other and configured to be simultaneously accessible; a compression-extension device, which is exclusively connected to each of the buffer memory devices; a control section to assign a buffer memory device to input image data raster by raster (one page of the image data) when executing input processing of the image data, which is input from a scanner or executes output processing of the image data to a printer section, so that the control section regulates and changes the image data flow raster by raster.
