Abstract
A film scanner for generating output image data by applying a correction process referring to a predetermined parameter to the read out image data generated by scanning an original is connected to a digital color printer. When an adjustment mode is specified in the film scanner, the reference output image data generated based on scanning a reference original by a printer is fed to the film scanner to be set as the target data. Based on read out image data generated by scanning a reference original having characteristics identical to those of a reference original, a parameter is calculated to be set for a correction process so that output image data matching the reference data is generated.
