An image copying device includes: a setting section setting an image processing condition specified by a user; a determination section determining whether or not an image processing condition is embedded in a read image obtained by reading out a sheet; and a control section that, if the determination section determines that the image processing condition is not embedded in the read image, performs control for generating a copied material of the read image by using the image processing condition set by the setting section. If the determination section determines that an image processing condition is embedded in the read image, the control section performs control for generating a copied material by using the embedded image processing condition and a part of the image processing condition set by the setting section, the part not conflicting with the embedded image processing condition.
