An image processing apparatus includes an exposure unit to expose a photoconductor to form an electrostatic latent image on the photoconductor; a development unit to develop the electrostatic latent image on the photoconductor as a toner image using toner; and an exposure power controller to control exposure power of the exposure unit depending on a printing mode, including a normal printing mode and a toner-save printing mode in which less toner is consumed than in the normal printing mode. The exposure power controller decreases the exposure power of the exposure unit for the toner-save printing mode compared to the exposure power of the exposure unit for the normal printing mode. |
