IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS THAT ADJUSTS MAXIMUM DENSITY

摘要

An image forming apparatus includes: a photosensitive member; a charging unit configured to charge the photosensitive member; an exposure unit configured to expose the photosensitive member charged by the charging unit with a laser beam in order to form an electrostatic latent image; a development unit configured to develop the electrostatic latent image on the photosensitive member to form an image; an obtaining unit configured to obtain information related to the photosensitive member; a measuring unit configured to measure a measurement image formed by the charging unit, the exposure unit, and the development unit; and a determination unit configured to determine an image forming condition for adjusting a maximum density of the image to be formed, based on a measurement result of the measuring unit and the information obtained by the obtaining unit.
