may be located in both the computer system 103 and the peripheral device that perform the various functions described herein in distributed manner the computer system 103 also includes a number of components that are stored on the memory 109 and are executable by the processor 106 these components include an operating system 133 a scanner copier driver 136 and any number of scanner copier applications 139 among the scanner copier applications 139 is an image processing evaluator 143 associated with the image processing evaluator 143 are default image processing settings 146 and current image processing settings 149 when executed the image processing evaluator 143 generates one or more graphical user interfaces 153 on the display device 116 alternatively other user interfaces may be employed beyond the graphical user interfaces 153 the user may make appropriate inputs and otherwise manipulate information and or devices on the user interfaces 153 this may be done for example by positioning a cursor with the mouse 119 and u201c clicking u201d on the various components or entering information using the keyboard 123 as can be appreciated by those with ordinary skill in the art while the image processing evaluator 103 is shown as implemented in the computer system 103 it is understood that the image processing evaluator 103 may be located on any device with suitable processing capabilities for example the image processing evaluator 103 may be embedded in the scanner 126 or located on a remote device coupled to the scanner 126 through a network etc the memory 109 is defined herein as both volatile and nonvolatile memory and data storage components volatile components are those that do not retain data values upon loss of power nonvolatile components are those that retain data upon a loss of power thus.
