Image forming apparatus and image forming method

摘要

An image forming apparatus includes a correction unit configured to execute first correction processing to be executed to bring reproduction characteristics of an image formed by an image forming unit close to a target value and second correction processing different from the first correction processing, and an adjustment unit configured to execute a plurality of adjustment processing including the second correction processing, wherein correction processing by the correction unit is set to be executed at a predetermined timing, and wherein in a case that correction processing by the correction unit is executed at the set timing after adjustment processing is executed by the adjustment unit, the image forming apparatus performs control not to execute the second correction processing included in the adjustment processing and to execute the second correction processing after executing the first correction processing by the correction unit.

1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
one or more processors; and one or more computer-readable media including instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the image forming apparatus to perform operations comprising:
executing correction data generation processing including first correction data generation processing for generating first correction data used to bring reproduction characteristics of an image formed by an image forming unit close to a target value, and second correction data generation processing for generating second correction data different from the first correction data;executing a plurality of adjustment processing including the second correction data generation processing;receiving an instruction that causes correction data generation processing to be executed within a predetermined time period after execution of adjustment processing;canceling, on the basis of the received instruction, the execution of the second correction data generation processing included in the plurality of adjustment processing; andperforming control in a manner such that the first correction data generation processing and the second correction data generation processing that are included in a plurality of correction data generation processing are executed after processing other than the second correction data generation processing, which is included in the plurality of adjustment processing and which has not been canceled, is executed,wherein the first correction data is more accurate than the second correction data.
