A method for correcting density unevenness for an image formation apparatus, the apparatus having a recording head with a plurality of recording elements arranged therein, each recording element having a recording characteristic, and driving means for driving the recording head, said method comprising the steps of:
- receiving image signals;
- generating correction signals to make corrections corresponding to each of the recording elements in accordance with data representing the recording characteristic of each of the recording elements of the recording head;
- correcting the image signals received in said receiving step with the correction signals;
- and
- driving the recording head with the driving means in accordance with the image signals corrected in said correction step to perform printing, wherein when the image signals indicate an image density lower than a predetermined density, a ratio of the corrections is reduced in said correction step.
