Patent number: 10520850Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes circuitry, a reader, and an exposure device that drives lighting elements aligned in a main scanning direction to form a first test image. The circuitry acquires density of first sub-areas, into which the first test image is divided in the main scanning direction, and calculates first correction data based on density of each of the first sub-areas and average density of the first sub-areas, to correct light amounts of the lighting elements. The exposure device forms a second test image with the light amounts corrected. The circuitry acquires density of second sub-areas, into which the second test image is divided in the main scanning direction, and calculates second correction data based on density of a second sub-area adjacent to each of the second sub-areas, to further correct the light amounts. The second sub-areas are differently located from the first sub-areas in the main scanning direction.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2019Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventors: Hiroaki Nishina, Koichi Murota, Yoshinobu Sakaue, Masashi Suzuki, Susumu Narita, Takuma Nishio, Ryo Sato
