Abstract
An image inspection apparatus includes a tester and an image storage processor. The tester inspects image data for an abnormality and, in a case where the tester detected an abnormality, further detects a kind of the abnormality. The image data is generated by reading a surface of a sheet on which an image is formed by an image forming apparatus. The image storage processor determines a compression condition depending on whether or not the tester detected an abnormality and depending on the kind of the abnormality, performs compression processing of the image data under the compression condition, and generates data to be stored.
