    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes: a plurality of image forming parts each of which transfers a toner image to the transfer medium, the plurality of image forming parts being arranged from an upstream side to a downstream side along a moving direction of the transfer medium; a density detector that detects a density of the toner image; and a hardware processor that performs image stabilization control in which a plurality of patch images is formed while levels of parameters of image formation are changed for each of the image forming parts and the parameters are corrected based on respective densities of the patch images detected by the density detector.

    摘要: A distance between a reference position and a reference image of a sheet is accurately measured without adding a special device even when an attitude of the sheet is not stable. An aspect of the present invention obtains image data by reading a sheet surface formed with the reference image such as a trim mark by a reading portion. A height calculation portion calculates edge-blur amounts of the reference position and the reference image on the sheet surface from the image data. Furthermore, a height calculation portion detects heights from a focus position to the sheet surface for the reference position and the reference image, from the edge-blur amount and a reflected light amount of a white solid portion. Moreover, a distance detection portion calculates a distance between the reference position and the reference image on the sheet surface, on the basis of a detection result.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes: an image former that forms an image, which is desired by a user and different from a predetermined pattern, on a sheet; an output information detector that detects output information on a first image formed on a first sheet by the image former; and a hardware processor that: acquires an correction amount of a third image, which is formed on a third sheet after the first sheet and a second sheet, according to a detection result of the first image by the output information detector and image information on a second image formed on the second sheet after the first sheet by the image former; and controls the image former so as to correct the third image based on the correction amount acquired by the hardware processor.

    摘要: In an image-forming apparatus such as a printer, a controller judges whether or not a determination processing of fixity saturation state is performed to determine a fixing condition in which an image density of a patch is the fixity saturation state. The controller then performs the determination processing of fixity saturation state when a use condition is changed. The controller settles fixing conditions in which the image density of patch is highest as the set value when the image density of the patch is saturated. Next, the controller performs a toner adhesion amount adjustment using an intermediate transfer belt. A target value of the toner adhesion amount on the intermediate transfer belt corresponding to the target image density is set and then, an optimal developing voltage that is the set target value is set. After the toner adhesion amount adjustment, the controller performs fixity adjustment.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes: an image former that forms a correction patch using toner; a measurer that measures a color, a density, or a deposited amount of toner of the correction patch; and a hardware processor that calculates a reference correction amount on the basis of a measurement value of the measurer so that the density of the correction patch reaches a target value, and corrects an image forming condition of the image former by a first correction amount smaller than the reference correction amount.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus that forms an output image corresponding to input image data on an image carrier by superimposing toner images of colors, includes a hardware processor that: detects color information of the output image for every pixel region; converts color information of the input image data for every pixel region and color information of the output image for every pixel region into indexes which define colors in predetermined color space coordinates; extracts a pixel region in which the color information of the output image is different from the color information of the input image data, and corrects the color information of the input image data with respect to the extracted pixel region; and stores the color information of the input image data as data for calibration in combination with the color information of the output image and image forming conditions when forming the output image.
