Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes: an image former that forms an image on a recording medium; and a hardware processor that acquires a read image obtained by reading the recording medium and determines a pass/fail for the image, wherein at the time of proof output, the hardware processor is capable of performing image inspection in which at least a read image obtained by reading a recording medium printed during the proof output is compared with a printing image of a job and a pass/fail is determined, and at the time of actual output of the job, the hardware processor is capable of performing image inspection in which at least a read image obtained by reading a recording medium printed during the actual output is compared with the read image obtained by reading the recording medium printed during the proof output and a pass/fail for an image is determined.

Claim (Index 8):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein, when an image is determined not to be normal by the image inspection during the proof output, the hardware processor performs recovery printing only for the image determined not to be normal on a new recording medium.
