Image forming apparatus

Abstract

An image forming apparatus includes a recording head, a control unit, and a correction processing unit. The recording head is configured to eject ink corresponding to an image to be printed, using nozzles. The control unit is configured to determine nozzles corresponding to the image to be printed, correspondingly to a position of a print sheet, and cause the recording head to eject ink from the nozzles. The correction processing unit is configured to perform for the image after gradation process a correction process corresponding to density anomaly that occurs due to an ejection order of the nozzles. Further, the correction processing unit performs the correction process for a density of a target pixel that the density anomaly occurs in the image after gradation pixel, on the basis of a total of densities of periphery pixels within a predetermined distance from the target pixel.
