a printer device configured to form an image on a medium in accordance with a first execution instruction received from the first external apparatus via the first communication interface or a second execution instruction received from the second external apparatus via the second communication interface, and

a processor configured to:

authenticate a user, and

handle a first kind of process performed by the printer device separately from a second kind of process performed by the printer device, and

manage information relating to an obtained user authentication result and information relating to a process performed in accordance with the first execution instruction or the second execution instruction, wherein:

the first kind of process is performed by the printer device in accordance with the second execution instruction, the second execution instruction being received after a predetermined requirement for use is satisfied, and

the second kind of process is performed by the printer device in accordance with the first execution instruction, the first execution instruction being received without satisfying the predetermined requirement for use.

2. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the predetermined requirement for operation is that the user is authenticated by the processor.

3. The image processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the predetermined requirement for use is that an operation is performed on a user interface display.

4. The image processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the predetermined requirement for use is that the second external apparatus has no identifying information that is registered in advance.

5. The image processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the predetermined requirement for use is that the user is authenticated by the processor.

6. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to calculate a fee charged for the process in accordance with the second execution instruction when the predetermined requirement for use is satisfied.

7. The image processing apparatus according to claim 6 , further comprising:

a user interface display that presents the fee calculated by the processor.

8. The image processing apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to accept an operation of approval by the user when the fee is presented by the user interface display, and

when the operation of approval is accepted by the processor, the printer device performs the process when the predetermined requirement for use is satisfied.

9. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:

the processor is further configured to:

identify a use mode of the image processing apparatus as classified for personal use when the process is the first kind of process, and

identify the use mode of the image processing apparatus as classified for organizational use when the process is the second kind of process.

10. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program that, when executed, causes a computer to execute a process for image processing, the computer including a first communication interface for communication with a first external apparatus, a second communication interface for communication with a second external apparatus, and a processor, the process comprising:

authenticating a user;

controlling and enabling the first communication interface to communicate with the first external apparatus;

controlling and enabling the second communication interface to connect to the second external apparatus when a predetermined requirement for operation is satisfied;

receiving a first execution instruction received from the first external apparatus via the first communication interface or a second execution instruction received from the second external apparatus via the second communication interface;

handling a first kind of process which is separate from a second kind of process; and

managing information relating to an obtained user authentication result and information relating to a process performed in accordance with the first execution instruction or the second execution instruction, wherein:

the first kind of process is performed in accordance with the second execution instruction, the second execution instruction being received after a predetermined requirement for use is satisfied, and

the second kind of process is performed in accordance with the first execution instruction, the first execution instruction being received without satisfying the predetermined requirement for use.

11. An image processing apparatus comprising:

means for authenticating a user;

means for communicating with a first external apparatus by a first method;

means for enabling connection to a second external apparatus by a second method that differs from the first method when a predetermined requirement for operation is satisfied;

means for forming an image on a medium in accordance with a first execution instruction received from the first external apparatus by the first method or a second execution instruction received from the second external apparatus by the second method; and

means for handling a first kind of image forming process separately from a second kind of image forming process, and

means for managing information relating to a user authentication result obtained by the means for authenticating a user and information relating to a process performed in accordance with the first execution instruction or the second execution instruction, wherein:

the first kind of image forming process is performed by the means for forming an image in accordance with the second execution instruction, the second execution instruction being received after a predetermined requirement for use is satisfied, and

the second kind of image forming process is performed by the means for forming an image in accordance with the first execution instruction, the first execution instruction being received without satisfying the predetermined requirement for use.
