Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a print mechanism, an obtaining unit that obtains measurement information of gradation characteristics of the print mechanism for a specific color material, and a generating unit that generates correction information for a print density of the specific color material in accordance with the measurement information. The correction information specifies that a corrected density with respect to an input density increases monotonically in a range of densities from a correction start density to a maximum density, and the correction start density is determined in accordance with a density where gradation starts to attenuate in the measurement information.
