Abstract:
The present invention performs inplane uneven density correction that suppresses a number of tone correction properties and has few correction residuals. Accordingly, a correction unit corrects pixel data D based on a plurality of tone correction properties respectively corresponding to a plurality of spot diameters of a light to expose on a surface of a photoreceptor, and to generate a plurality of pieces of correction data D1 and D2. A setting unit sets a ratio Rb based on a spot diameter on the photoreceptor of a pixel corresponding to the pixel data D. A blending unit generates tone correction data Dc by blending the plurality of pieces of correction data D1 and D2 based on the ratio Rb.
