Patent ID: 8565626

Claim:
An image forming system comprising: two image forming apparatuses, each forming an image on one of a first face and a second face serving as image forming faces of a continuous recording paper; and a control apparatus connected to the two image forming apparatuses, wherein the control apparatus includes a receiving unit that receives, from each of the two image forming apparatuses, information regarding a transfer rate affecting condition that affects a difference in toner transfer rates of the image forming faces; a determining unit that determines, based on a standard amount of toner deposit and the transfer rate affecting condition regarding each of the first face and the second face, a target deposit amount representing a target amount of toner deposit in each of the two image forming apparatuses in such a way that the target deposit amounts have a difference corresponding to the difference in the toner transfer rate between the two image forming apparatuses; and a sending unit that sends the target deposit amounts to the two image forming apparatuses, and each of the two image forming apparatuses includes a communicating unit that sends the corresponding transfer rate affecting condition to the control apparatus and receives the corresponding target deposit amount from the control apparatus; an imaging condition correcting unit that corrects an imaging condition based on the corresponding target deposit amount; and an image forming unit that forms an image based on the corrected imaging condition.
