PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the operability by reducing the down time in an image processing system constituted so that plural image forming devices are connected to each other and image data are mutually transferred among respective image forming devices so as to output images. SOLUTION: In the case at least one image forming device 1 is used to read an original image and at least two or more image forming devices 1 bear their share of the copying processing of the read original image, when all the image forming devices 1 in the system are under reloading at this time a copying operation start instruction key is depressed, an original reading operation by the image forming device 1 for reading the original image is precedingly executed. Further, when one of the image forming devices 1 sharing the copying processing is not in a reloading state, printing operations are successively started from the image forming devices 1 in the reloading states or the transfer of the image date to the image forming devices 1 in the reloading states is precedingly performed. |
