摘要:
An image handling system with a variable magnification function can form a high-quality image at all times. The system sets a relative movement distance or speed between a recording head and a recording material and then determines a recording pixel area according to the set variation ratio in the relative movement distance or speed.

摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes reading means for reading the density of a test pattern corresponding to each of plural recording elements of a recording head, the recording elements being arranged in an array, and the test pattern being recorded by the recording elements. An eliminating means eliminates error information, recorded from an area outside a test pattern are, from density information obtained by the reading means when the density of a test pattern end portion corresponding to an end portion of the array of plural of recording elements is determined. A means is provided for uniforming the image densities in correspondence with the plurality of recording elements based on density information from which the error information is eliminated by the eliminating means.

A correction data production apparatus includes a detecting unit for reading a test pattern formed by a recording head having a plurality of recording elements constituting an array, and for detecting a density distribution of a range of the array of the plurality of recording elements, a corresponding unit for causing the density distribution detected by the detecting unit to correspond to the plurality of recording elements on the basis of a reference position where a density of an end portion of the density distribution reaches a predetermined threshold value, a production unit for producing correction data for an image formation density uniforming drive conditions in correspondence with the plurality of recording elements on the basis of the density distribution corresponded by the corresponding unit, and a changing unit for changing the threshold value in accordance with characteristics of the test pattern.
摘要:
An image recording apparatus and method performs recording by making an ink adhere to a recording medium according to the blot ratio of a recording medium, when using an ink droplet or heat sensitive ink. Input recording data is discriminated based on a predetermined reference value based on the blot ratio and when the image data is larger than the reference value, the image data is reduced in order to reduce the ink dot size. Reducing the ink dot size at a recording boundary improves the quality of the image recorded at the recording boundary.
