An image formation apparatus provided according to the present invention does not generate any printing density streaks in low density areas of an image and is therefore capable of outputting stabilized images without any density unevennesses and density streaks in any tonality. The apparatus is structured so as to correct density signals in accordance with a correction table 1 for indicating the recording characteristics of each of the recording elements of the head and the recording characteristics indicated by this correction table 1, and to drive the recording head in accordance with a correction table 2, which does not allow the foregoing corrections to be made when the density signals are lower than a given density, and the density signals corrected by this correction table 2.
An image forming apparatus, having a recording head with a plurality of recording elements arranged therein for forming images, said apparatus comprising:
An image forming apparatus, having a recording head with a plurality of recording elements arranged therein for forming images, said apparatus comprising:
An image forming method for forming an image using a recording head having a plurality of recording elements, said method comprising the steps of:
An image recording apparatus having a recording head provided with a plurality of recording elements for recording on a recording medium by driving the recording elements in accordance with an image signal, the recording head performing gradation recording in response to image density information in the image signal, said apparatus comprising:
