Patent ID: 8817321

Claim:
An image forming apparatus, comprising: an image forming unit that respectively forms a plurality of images in a plurality of corresponding image formed regions by executing image formation processing by a single unit, with a density that is adjusted in accordance with a predetermined density adjustment value; and a controller that provides control in which, if the image formation processing by the single unit is executed first since a density adjustment condition for adjusting a density of an image is satisfied, the density adjustment value is changed by a predetermined basic change amount, and a first image is formed in the corresponding image formed region by the image forming unit with a density that is adjusted in accordance with the changed density adjustment value, and control in which, if a single image other than the first image is formed in the corresponding image formed region, the current density adjustment value is changed by a predetermined fine change amount that is smaller than the basic change amount, and the single image is formed in the corresponding image formed region by the image forming unit with a density that is adjusted in accordance with the changed density adjustment value.
