In one embodiment, an image forming apparatus that digitally performs image processing and correction processing of image information, and calculates toner consumption by performing a pixel count of an input multilevel image, includes a counting portion that counts, pixel by pixel, the input signal levels of an input multilevel image; a weighting coefficient table that stores weighting coefficients corresponding to the input signal levels; a weighting calculation portion that obtains weighting coefficients corresponding to the input signal levels from the weighting coefficient table and performs weighting of each pixel when counting the input signal levels with the counting portion; and a rewriting portion that rewrites the weighting coefficients stored in the weighting coefficient table; in which a process control is performed when the calculated toner consumption reaches a predetermined value.
