An image having no secrecy is printed on a non-secret information display area of an original paper, whereas an image having secrecy, which should be originally printed, is not printed on a secret image display area. When the original paper is copied on a printing paper, an image read from the original paper is printed on a secret image display area, whereas a secret image is printed on a non-secret information display area only when an access operation to the secret image is authenticated.
