Abstract
An inkjet recording device includes a hardware processor. The hardware processor: performs, for respective recording heads of a recorder, setting relevant to adjustment of an amount of ink to be discharged from nozzle groups; based on ink discharge amount information on a distribution of ink discharge amounts that are discharged from the nozzle groups based on image data, performs the setting such that at each joint in the nozzle groups, a difference between representative values of the ink discharge amounts of the nozzle groups satisfies a predetermined continuity condition, and a representative value of the ink discharge amounts of the nozzle groups satisfies a predetermined discharge amount condition; and adjusts at least a part of the setting such that a difference between a maximum value and a minimum value of the ink discharge amounts of the nozzle groups reduces.
