Abstract

In an image processing device, a transfer unit enlarges or reduces the image data at the transfer magnification by performing an enlarging or reducing process on the image data once, when the transfer magnification is equal to or smaller than an upper limit or equal to or greater than a lower limit. The transfer unit also repeats, by a plurality of times, a process of performing an enlarging or reducing process on an image data stored in a first region of a storage unit at a divided-transfer magnification equal to or smaller than the upper limit or equal to or greater than the lower limit and then storing the image data in a second region of the storage unit, when the transfer magnification is above the upper limit or below the lower limit.
