    摘要: The present invention corrects and controls both short-term changes in the density and gradation of the obtained image due to changes in the environment and the like, and long-term changes in the density and gradation of the obtained image due to changes in the properties of the photosensitive member and the developer during a long use period using two kinds of density control operations. In first density control, a predetermined pattern is formed on a recording material via a visual-image forming process, and a contrast potential and an LUT (look-up table) for gamma conversion are set based on the value of density of the formed pattern and in a second density control, control is performed by controlling an amount of replenishment of a toner according to a first reference value, which is corrected based on the difference between the value of density of a pattern formed on a photosensitive drum and a second reference value, thereafter a pattern is formed on the photosensitive drum by driving the visual-image forming process with a parameter set in the first density control, and the first and second reference values are corrected based on the value of density of the formed pattern.

    摘要: When forming an image in which a half-tone image area such as photograph, screen, or the like and characters and fine lines exist the half-tone image area and the character and fine line portion are stably reproduced without deteriorating the picture qualities of both of them and, particularly, the character and fine line portion can be clearly reproduced. A digital image signal generated from an image reader is stored into an image memory on a pixel unit basis. A CPU subsequently reads the stored digital image signal and forms a frequency distribution function (density histogram) as a detection frequency of corresponding density values every pixel. The density level value of the portion in which the detection frequency is locally high is detected from the formed density histogram. The density level values are converted into at least one density value by a gradation correction circuit. An image having an excellent gradation reproducibility in a range from a low density portion to a high density portion can be formed by the converted density value.
