Abstract
An image processing method includes the steps of: detecting an inclination of image data; storing the image data for one line into a first memory; changing a reading timing when the image data is read from the first memory, according to the detected inclination, whereby correcting a shift in a main scanning direction; storing the image data for not smaller than 2 lines into a second memory; and changing a line position in a sub-scanning direction when the image data is read from the second memory, according to the detected inclination, whereby correcting a shift in the sub-scanning direction.
