Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit having a photosensitive member, an exposure unit, and a developing unit having a developing sleeve; and a controller configured to acquire read data relating to a first test image, a second test image, and a third test image formed on a same sheet by the image forming unit, and adjust a density in a main scanning direction of an image to be formed by the image forming unit based on the read data. A first interval between the first test image and the second test image is different from a second interval between the second test image and the third test image. Each of the first interval and the second interval is different from an integral multiple of a circumferential length of the photosensitive member, and is different from an integral multiple of a circumferential length of the developing sleeve.
