Abstract:
Provided is an image forming apparatus capable of counting a number of prints with high accuracy and a recording medium. An MFP that includes a monochrome counter for monochrome printing and a color counter for color printing sets the monochrome counter as a target counter for reflecting the number of prints in a printing process when only monochrome toner of monochrome toner and color toner is consumed in the printing process. Moreover, the MFP sets the color counter as a target counter when color toner is consumed in a printing process. Then, the MFP reflects the number of prints in a printing process on the set target counter.

Claim (Index 3):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 1 , comprising:\n a color-conversion unit that executes color conversion on image data; a printing device that executes printing on a recording medium based on the image data after color conversion is executed by the color-conversion unit; and a printing-device-operating unit that operates the printing device; wherein the color-conversion unit executes color conversion on the image data based on the color of the color material that can be used in the printing device; and the target-counter-setting unit sets the target counter based on the image data after color conversion is executed by the color-conversion unit and not based on the consumed amount of the color material in the printing process, when the printing-device-operating unit operates the printing device based on the image data after color conversion is executed by the color-conversion unit.
