Abstract

An image processing unit performs an image processing operation and further performs a setting operation causing a power load as a power load operation. A first control unit controls the image processing unit. A second control unit controls an operation of the first control unit by communicating with the first control unit. An interrupting unit interrupts the power load operation at a first timing after the first control unit is activated when the image processing apparatus is turned on. A resuming unit resumes the power load operation interrupted by the interrupting unit at a second timing.
