PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a load when generating image data, and accelerate a transfer speed of the image data.SOLUTION: An image formation apparatus comprises: an image generation part 21 for generating image data on one or more objects located in an area of one page by rasterization processing; a first memory 31; and a memory control part 23 for transferring the image data on each object generated by the image generation part 21 to the first memory 31 in repeat page units which are repeatedly determined in a sub-scanning direction within the area of the one page, and reading out the image data stored in the first memory 31 in the repeat page units. The memory control part 23 reads out and outputs the image data on each object from the first member 31 in an area of each object among an area of each repeat page, and reads out the image data on each repeat page from the first memory 31 by outputting blank image data in the area other than the area of each object. |
