Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a medium discharge portion onto which a medium to be taken out by a person with the person standing is discharged, a placement portion that is installed above the medium discharge portion, an object in color that is represented by using a Y-value closer than a value that represents black color to a value that represents white color where the color is represented by using a Y-value that represents luminance in a YCbCr method being placed on the placement portion, an image capturing member that is installed above the placement portion and that captures an image of the object that is placed on the placement portion. Color of an upper portion of the placement portion is represented by using a Y-value closer than the value that represents the white color to the value that represents the black color where the color is represented by using the Y-value that represents the luminance in the YCbCr method such that the object and the placement portion are distinguishable from each other in the image that is captured by the image capturing member.
