1. An image processing apparatus configured to determine presence or absence of print abnormality in a target image by comparing a reference image or reference images, each of which is a print result to be a reference, and the target image, which is a print result to be an inspection target, the image processing apparatus comprising:
one or more processors that are configured to:
set an inspection sensitivity for a printed product; and
compare the reference image or reference images and the target image using a number of the reference images set based on the inspection sensitivity,
wherein the one or more processors compare the reference image or reference images and the target image using the reference image or reference images determined so that the number of reference images is increased as the set inspection sensitivity is higher.
