There is provided an image forming apparatus that includes: an operating unit; a plurality of scanner units each obtaining image data by scanning; an image processing unit capable of adjusting reading characteristics by correcting the image data; and an image-processing control unit that includes an image-processing-parameter calculating unit that calculates an image-processing parameter according to settings established via the operating unit, an image-processing-parameter storing unit that stores a calculation result, and an image-processing-parameter setting unit that sets the image-processing parameter stored in the image-processing parameter storing unit as an image-processing parameter of the image processing unit; and a difference-in-setting determining unit that makes a determination as to whether there is difference between previous settings and current settings established via the operating unit. The image-processing-parameter calculating unit includes a first calculating unit that calculates the image-processing parameter when the difference-in-setting determining unit has determined that there is the difference.
An image forming apparatus comprising:
A method for setting an image-processing parameter of an image processing unit in an image forming apparatus that includes an operating unit, a plurality of scanner units each obtaining image data by scanning, and the image processing unit capable of adjusting reading characteristics by correcting the image data fed from the scanner units, the method comprising:
A computer program product comprising a computer-usable medium having computer-readable program codes embodied in the medium for setting an image-processing parameter of an image processing unit in an image forming apparatus that includes an operating unit, a plurality of scanner units each obtaining image data by scanning, and the image processing unit capable of adjusting reading characteristics by correcting the image data fed from the scanner units, the program codes when executed causing a computer to execute:
