Image forming apparatus, information processing apparatus, and recording medium

An information processing apparatus that is attachable to an image forming apparatus, wherein

• the image forming apparatus comprises:
• an image former configured to form a first image on a first recording medium;
• and
• a feeder configured to feed the first recording medium to the image former, the information processing apparatus comprises:
• a reader configured to read the first image formed on the first recording medium;
• a process executor configured to execute a predetermined process based on a first read image that is obtained by the reader by reading the first image;
• a controller;
• and
• a corrector, wherein
• the image former comprises a transfer belt that transfers the first image to the first recording medium on a conveying path,
• the reader reads a second image that is formed on a second recording medium fed by the feeder and conveyed on the conveying path,
• the controller causes the transfer belt to be separated from the second recording medium on the conveying path, and
• the corrector is configured to correct the reader based on a second read image that is obtained from the second image read by the reader and a predetermined read reference image.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute a process performed in an image forming apparatus,

• the image forming apparatus comprising:
• an image former configured to form a first image on a first recording medium;
• a feeder configured to feed the first recording medium to the image former;
• a reader configured to, read the first image formed on the first recording medium;
• a controller;
• and
• a process executor configured to execute a predetermined process based on a first read image that is obtained by the reader by, reading the first image, wherein
• the image former comprises a transfer belt that transfers the first image to the first recording medium on a conveying path, and
• the process comprises:
• reading, with the reader, a second image that is formed on a second recording medium fed by the feeder and conveyed on the conveying path;
• causing, with the controller, the transfer belt to be separated from the second recording medium on the conveying path;
• and
• correcting the reader based on a second read image that is obtained from the second image read by the reader and a predetermined read reference image.
