Abstract
A video count value is acquired per unit area predetermined in a direction in which a recording medium is conveyed, based on recording target image data. When an image has been formed on an area of the recording medium from which the video count value has been acquired, control is performed by using the acquired video count value so that a developing unit is replenished with an amount of toner corresponding to the video count value acquired from the area.
