Image forming apparatus and method of producing light quantity correction data

摘要

An electrophotographic image forming apparatus including an LED (Light Emitting Diode) array head and a method of generating data for correcting the quantities of light to issue form the LEDs of the LED array head are disclosed. Only the quantity of light that actually contributes to development is uniformed throughout the LEDs. This reduces the scatter of a dot area in a latent image and thereby enhances image quality while insuring the sufficient resolution of the LEDs.
