  • Patent number: 10194056
    Abstract: A color processing device includes a color-data acquisition section, a conversion-relationship generation section, a correction-image-data generation section, and a conversion-relationship correction section. The color-data acquisition section acquires color data of a first image output by a first image forming device. In accordance with a first relationship and a second relationship, the conversion-relationship generation section generates a conversion relationship used for color adjustment performed to match a color of a second image to be output by a second image forming device on a basis of unadjusted image data with a color of the first image. The correction-image-data generation section generates, on a basis of the unadjusted image data, correction image data for correcting the conversion relationship.

  • Patent number: 10033907
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image memory, an image receiving unit, an image determination unit, an image search unit, an image forming unit, and an image converter. The image memory stores replacement image data. The image receiving unit receives image data from the outside. The image determination unit determines whether the received-image data includes to-be-replaced image data. The image search unit searches, in a case where it is determined that the received-image data includes the to-be-replaced image data, the image memory for replacement image data corresponding to the to-be-replaced image data. The image forming unit forms an image. The image converter converts, in a case where the corresponding replacement image data is detected, the received-image data into to-be-output image data in which the to-be-replaced image data is replaced with the corresponding replacement image data, and causes an image based on the to-be-output image data to be formed.
