Abstract: In one embodiment, an image forming apparatus includes an image region dividing portion which determines, within an image formable width, an image boundary position that matches with one of matrix boundaries corresponding to boundaries between dither matrices, and sets image adjustment regions. The image forming apparatus also includes a correction processing portion which uses common calibration data to determine imaginary adjustment regions positioned closest to the image adjustment regions, respectively, in a main scanning direction, and uses a correction amount for the determined imaginary adjustment region to correct the position in a sub-scanning direction, thereby reducing a color shift.
