Method and apparatus for preventing erroneous image density detection in an image forming apparatus

摘要

A humidity sensor detects a relative humidity which is one of the conditions of surroundings. CPU judges a defective detection and stops an objective image forming operation when density is decreased despite an increase in humidity or when density is increased despite a decrease in humidity basing on an image density information related to AIDC pattern supplied from AIDC sensor and basing on a humidity information supplied from the humidity sensor.
