An image forming apparatus includes a color measurement portion printing unit, a colorimeter, and an image evaluating unit. The color measurement portion printing unit prints at least one color measurement portion. The colorimeter measures a color of the color measurement portion. The image evaluating unit evaluates, on the basis of a measured color value obtained by the colorimeter and a predetermined reference value, whether or not an image printed in response to a print request satisfies quality requirements that are based on a predetermined standard. The image evaluating unit evaluates whether or not the image satisfies the quality requirements, on the basis of a measured color value of a color measurement portion whose color is the same as a color used in the image or whose color difference from the color used in the image is within a predetermined range, among plural color measurement portions. |
