<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a developing device, an image forming apparatus, a developing method and a development processing program in which toner supply amount is accurately controlled. <P>SOLUTION: A developing device drive time (developing time) ΔT is calculated by a developing device drive time acquiring part 54 (step 502), humidity H is acquired from a humidity detection sensor 58 (step 504), a deterioration acceleration factor W corresponding to the acquired humidity H is acquired from an HDD 76 (steps 508 to 512), and a cumulative value K of the usage of developer is calculated (step 514), and further a fluidity index R is calculated (step 516). The amount of toner to be supplied to the developer is corrected according to a fluidity correction value ΔATC_FLW based on the fluidity index R. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
