Abstract
Performance of the auto selection processing depends greatly on performance of an image reading apparatus. Since an image processing parameter set by assuming the possible strictest condition is applied to all the image processing apparatuses of the same product kind without variation, there occurs an event that some of the image processing apparatuses do not sufficiently effect the performance of the image reading apparatus. An apparatus of setting a parameter used at the time an image processing apparatus determines whether an image data read by an image reading apparatus is a colored image or a monochrome image, to the image processing apparatus, comprises a unit configured to obtain a reading characteristic of the image reading apparatus, and a parameter setting unit configured to set the parameter corresponding to the obtained reading characteristic.
