Processing system, processing apparatus, processing method, and storage medium

A processing apparatus comprising a hardware processor that:

• obtains first read data of a sample image for image data included in user desired job data for image formation;
• searches job data stored in a storage section for data of a similar image to an image included in the obtained first read data to detect the data of the similar image;
• outputs a list of the detected data of the similar image;
• causes an image forming apparatus to form an image based on selected data selected from the data included in the list;
• obtains second read data of the formed image;
• and
• performs color adjustment on the selected data based on the first read data and the second read data.

A processing method comprising:

• obtaining first read data of a sample image for image data included in user desired job data for image formation;
• searching job data stored in a storage section for data of a similar image to an image included in the obtained first read data to detect the data of the similar image;
• outputting a list of the detected data of the similar image;
• causing an image forming apparatus to form an image based on selected data selected from the data included in the list;
• obtaining second read data of the formed image;
• and
• performing color adjustment on the selected data based on the first read data and the second read data.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program that causes a computer to:

• obtain first read data of a sample image for image data included in user desired job data for image formation;
• search job data stored in a storage section for data of a similar image to an image included in the obtained first read data to detect the data of the similar image;
• output a list of the detected data of the similar image;
• cause an image forming apparatus to form an image based on selected data selected from the data included in the list;
• obtain second read data of the formed image;
• and
• perform color adjustment on the selected data based on the first read data and the second read data.
