Abstract:
An image forming device includes: a hardware processor that performs halftone processing on input image data using a threshold matrix of a dither method, and that, when dot missing exists in a formed image by the image forming part, performs interpolation by rearranging a missing dot to peripheral pixel position; and an image forming part that forms an image on a recording medium on the basis of image data after halftone processing by the halftone processing part, wherein the hardware processor, using the threshold matrix, sets a blank pixel having a high probability of being generated next when gradation is increased, as a rearrangement destination of the missing dot.

Claim (Index 5):
The image forming device according to  claim 3 , wherein\n the hardware processor acquires information on the defective nozzle, and the hardware processor performs interpolation processing of the missing dot on the basis of information acquired by the hardware processor.
