Abstract:
When an edge effect or sweeping occurs in a developing material, pixels, among a plurality of pixels that configure image data, will arise in which a developing material consumption amount rises beyond an original consumption amount. A CPU corrects the developing material consumption amount for the pixels, among the plurality of pixels that configure the image data, in which the developing material consumption amount will rise beyond the original consumption amount.
