Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a first reading unit configured to read a first image on a first surface of a document, a second reading unit configured to read a second image on a second surface of the document different from the first surface, a printing unit configured to print a third image on a sheet, and a setting unit configured to set resolution of the third image printed by the printing unit. The printing unit prints the third image on the sheet with the resolution set by the setting unit. The printing unit also prints a fourth image with resolution lower than or equal to a threshold, without using the set resolution, the fourth image used for correction of at least a color value obtained by reading the second image using the second reading unit.

An image forming apparatus, comprising:
- a first reading unit configured to read a first image on a first surface of a document;
- a second reading unit configured to read a second image on a second surface of the document, the second surface different from the first surface;
- a printing unit configured to print a third image on a sheet;
- and
- a setting unit configured to set resolution of the third image printed by the printing unit,
- wherein the printing unit prints the third image on the sheet with the resolution set by the setting unit, and
- wherein the printing unit prints a fourth image with resolution lower than or equal to a threshold, without using the set resolution, the fourth image used for correction of at least a color value obtained by reading the second image using the second reading unit.
A method of controlling an image forming apparatus that includes a first reading unit configured to read an image on a first surface of a document, a second reading unit configured to read an image on a second surface of the document, the second surface different from the first surface, and a printing unit configured to print a third image on a sheet, the method comprising:
- setting resolution of the third image printed by the printing unit,
- wherein the printing unit prints the third image on the sheet with the set resolution, and
- wherein the printing unit prints a fourth image with resolution lower than or equal to a threshold, without using the set resolution, the fourth image used for correction of at least a color value obtained by reading the second image using the second reading unit.
