Image recogniton device, peripheral device connected with image recognition device, and image processing system

摘要

A printer ( 30 ) prints image data received from a personal computer ( 20 ). The printer stores a recognition program, which is installed for the printer driver of the personal computer. The personal computer executes the received recognition program to carry out recognition. Upon detecting a specific image, the personal computer instructs the printer to discontinue the printing operation. An image processing system is thus provided which prohibits the printer from producing printout if the personal computer connected with the printer detects a prohibited image.
