Abstract
An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus configured to form an image on a recording medium and an output device configured to output information for a user. The image forming system further includes circuitry configured to acquire, from a reading device read data of the image on the recording medium; calculate a correction value of an image density of the read image; cause the image forming apparatus to form, on a recording medium, a corrected image based on the correction value; and acquire, from the reading device, read data of the corrected image; and cause the output device to output report information representing a relation between a density variation value of the corrected image and a threshold of the density variation value.
Claims11
An image forming system comprising:
- an image forming apparatus configured to form an image on a recording medium;
- an output device configured to output information for a user;
- and
- circuitry configured to:
- acquire, from a reading device, read data of an image on the recording medium read by the reading device;
- calculate a correction value of an image density of the read image;
- cause the image forming apparatus to form, on a recording medium, a corrected image based on the correction value;
- acquire, from the reading device, read data of the corrected image;
- and
- cause the output device to output report information representing a relation between a density variation value of the corrected image and a threshold of the density variation value.
A density adjusting method performed by an image forming system, the density adjusting method comprising:
- acquiring read data of an image formed on a recording medium by an image forming apparatus;
- calculating a correction value of an image density of the read image;
- forming, with the image forming apparatus, a corrected image on a recording medium, based on the correction value of the image density of the read image;
- acquiring read data of the corrected image;
- and
- outputting report information representing a relation between a density variation value of the corrected image and a threshold of the density variation value.
A non-transitory recording medium storing a plurality of program codes which, when executed by one or more processors, causes the processors to perform a density adjusting method, the method comprising:
- acquiring read data of an image formed on a recording medium by an image forming apparatus;
- calculating a correction value of an image density of the read image;
- forming, with the image forming apparatus, a corrected image on a recording medium, based on the correction value of the image density of the read image;
- acquiring read data of the corrected image;
- and
- outputting report information representing a relation between a density variation value of the corrected image and a threshold of the density variation value.
