Claim 4:
5. The image forming apparatus according to claim 1, wherein,
when the reference correction amount exceeds a threshold, the first correction amount is a sum of a second correction amount determined for an intra-threshold correction amount that corresponds to the threshold in the reference correction amount and a third correction amount determined for an extra-threshold correction amount that corresponds to an amount exceeding the threshold in the reference correction amount, and
the hardware processor further determines the second correction amount according to the intra-threshold correction amount and a planned number of calculations of the reference correction amount in a period from formation of the correction patch until the image forming condition is corrected, and determines a value obtained by subtracting a previous extra-threshold correction amount from a current extra-threshold correction amount as the third correction amount.
