Abstract
An image forming device includes: a hardware processor that performs halftone processing on input image data using a threshold matrix of a dither method, and that, when dot missing exists in a formed image by the image forming part, performs interpolation by rearranging a missing dot to peripheral pixel position; and an image forming part that forms an image on a recording medium on the basis of image data after halftone processing by the halftone processing part, wherein the hardware processor, using the threshold matrix, sets a blank pixel having a high probability of being generated next when gradation is increased, as a rearrangement destination of the missing dot.
