An UV-irradiation apparatus of an embodiment is provided with an irradiation unit, a measuring unit, a detecting unit, a calculator and a display. The irradiation unit irradiates treatment water as a treatment target with treating ultraviolet rays. The measuring unit measures ultraviolet ray intensity of ultraviolet rays transmitted through the treatment water. The detecting unit detects a deterioration of the irradiation unit in accordance with the ultraviolet ray intensity measured by the measuring unit. The calculator calculates the ultraviolet ray permeability of the treatment water, on the basis of the ultraviolet ray intensity of ultraviolet rays emitted from the irradiation unit depending on a preset setting value and the ultraviolet ray intensity measured by the measuring unit. The display displays the detection result of the deterioration of the irradiation unit by the detecting unit, and the ultraviolet ray permeability calculated by the calculator.

UV-irradiation apparatus

A control system controls an image forming unit that includes a charging device, an image bearer to be charged by the charging device, a light-emitting device array including a plurality of light emitting devices, and a driving causing the light emitting devices to emit light to form a latent image on the image bearer. The control system includes a storage unit, a corrector, and a controller. The storage unit is configured to store a light-amount correction value of each of the light emitting devices. The corrector is configured to correct a pixel value of each pixel in image data, based on the light-amount correction value of each light emitting device stored in the storage unit. The controller is configured to control the driver to cause each light emitting device to emit light based on image data for which a pixel value of each pixel has been corrected.

Control system configured to correct variations in optical output of light emitting devices, image forming system, control method, and computer-readable recording medium
