Embodiment Construction

[0029] In describing the embodiments illustrated in the drawings, specific terminology will be employed for the sake of clarity. However, the disclosure of the present invention is not intended to be limited by the terminology used, and it is understood that substitutions for each specific element may include any equivalent techniques that work in the same manner.

[0030] Now, as an image forming apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, an electrophotographic printer 1 will be described with reference to the drawings, in which like reference numerals denote like or corresponding parts in several views. figure 1 is a schematic configuration diagram showing main components of the printer 1 according to the embodiment.

[0031] Apart from figure 1 With the configuration shown, the printer 1 also includes not-shown components such as a print controller or processor for processing image data sent by, for example, a personal computer (hereinafter referred to ...

Abstract

In an image forming apparatus, a processor performs: a solid density stabilization of adjusting, according to detected toner adhesion amounts of solid toner images of solid tone patterns, a condition to form solid images with respective target image densities; a misregistration reduction of adjusting, according to detection timing of position detection toner images of misregistration detection patterns, a condition to reduce misregistration of toner images; and a halftone density stabilization of adjusting, according to detected toner adhesion amounts of area coverage modulation toner images, a condition to form halftone images with respective target image densities. The processor continuously performs the solid density stabilization and the misregistration reduction, and starts the halftone density stabilization when the solid density stabilization is completed and the misregistration reduction is not completed, to concurrently perform a step of the misregistration reduction and at least a step of the halftone density stabilization.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an imaging apparatus and an imaging method that perform halftone density stabilization processing in addition to solid-state density stabilization processing and misregistration reduction processing Background technique [0002] There is a tandem type image forming apparatus in which toner images of yellow, magenta, cyan, and black (referred to below as Y, M, C, and K, respectively) are formed on an image bearing member , for example, on a photoconductor, and then, superimposed and transferred onto a belt member or a recording paper on the belt member. [0003] In the tandem type imaging device, since the position of the light path of the optical system that optically writes the latent image on the image bearing member is slightly changed by, for example, a change in temperature, four images in Y, M, C, and K colors bear The relative deviation of the latent image forming position among the parts may occur, thus causing...
