IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSOR, AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To execute a calibration for making characteristics and action of an image forming apparatus appropriate by using an optional recording medium.

SOLUTION: An image forming means forms pattern images on a specific recording medium which is used for the calibration and an optional recording medium respectively in order to add the optional recording medium as the recording medium which is used for the calibration. A creation means creates second conversion setting information for converting luminance information applied to the optional recording medium into density information using first luminance information obtained from the pattern image formed on the specific recording medium, second luminance information obtained from the pattern image formed on the optional recording medium and first conversion setting information for converting the luminance information applied to the specific recording medium to the density information. A determination means determines a common image forming condition that is applied to the specific recording medium and the optional recording medium on the basis of the second conversion setting information.
