An image forming apparatus capable of realizing miniaturization of apparatus and low cost is supplied. In the image forming apparatus, an inputting section inputs gradation data values P with N bits; a gradation changing section changes the gradation data value P into a data set including 2(N−M) (M<N) data with M bits; and a pixel forming section receives the data sets each includes 2(N−M) (M<N) data with M bits according to an receiving order, forms dots whose energies are different on respective lines of M lines, and forms a gradation pixel of M bits. |
