Abstract:
An image forming device in which a plurality of nozzles are aligned in a designated alignment direction, wherein a plurality of pixels constituting a formed image includes dot omission pixels continuous in a scan direction by a defective nozzle included in the plurality of nozzles, and neighboring pixels within a designated distance in the alignment direction from the dot omission pixels, the image forming device comprising a pattern determining unit configured to determine a dot pattern after supplementation formed on neighboring pixels within designated range based on at least the number of dots to be formed on the pixels within the designated range including a portion of the dot omission pixels and a portion of the neighboring pixels according to recording data before supplementation of dots by the defective nozzle, and a pattern forming unit configured to form the dot pattern after supplementation.

Claim (Index 22):
The image forming device according to  claim 1 , further comprising\n a setting receiving unit configured to receive one of a plurality of settings including a first setting for forming dots on a first object to be recorded, and a second setting for forming dots on a second object to be recorded for which liquid bleeds more easily than the first object to be recorded, wherein the pattern determining unit, when the total number of dots that are assigned to the dot omission pixels and the neighboring pixels within the designated range based on the pre-supplementation recording data is a second designated number or greater, is configured to make the ratio for enlarging the dots that are arranged on the neighboring pixels within the designated range when the first setting is received larger than the ratio for enlarging the dots that are arranged on the neighboring pixels within the designated range when the second setting is received.
