IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

An image processing apparatus that is capable of calculating an appropriate replacement guide value of a part even in a case where the image processing apparatus operates under different operating modes. The image processing apparatus is capable of operating in a plurality of operating modes of different image forming speeds and has a replacement guide default value showing a guide for replacement of a part for each of the operating modes. A degree of wear of the part for each of the operating modes is calculated based on the replacement guide default value. The calculated degree of wear is, in a case where the operating mode is changed, converted to a degree of wear for the operating mode after the change, and a replacement guide value of the part in the operating mode is calculated after the change based on the converted degree of wear.

1. An image processing apparatus that is capable of operating in a plurality of operating modes of different image forming speeds and that has a replacement guide default value showing a guide for replacement of a part for each of the operating modes, the image processing apparatus comprising:
a degree of wear calculation unit configured to calculate a degree of wear of the part for each of the operating modes based on the replacement guide default value; and a guide value calculation unit configured to convert, in a case where the operating mode is changed, the degree of wear calculated by said degree of wear calculation unit to a degree of wear for the operating mode after the change, and calculate a replacement guide value of the part in the operating mode after the change based on the converted degree of wear.
