Yes, the protection of the software and the images it creates are separate, but that's missing the point. What protections the software does or doesn't have are irrelevant to the question of whether or not the images are covered. By developing the software, he determines how it functions, which influences the final product that it outputs. That would still be the case even if the software weren't covered by IP of any kind at all.
