The present invention aims to create a database for realizing proper correction processing in accordance with inherent difference and/or time-lapse change of an output unit. The present invention provides an image processing method comprising a holding step for holding an original database in which a correction condition corresponding to a reproducing property of an output unit is stored, a forming step for writing a correction condition formed by calibration processing in the original database to create a new database, and a correction processing step for effecting correction processing regarding input data by using the created new database, and wherein the calibration processing not only creates the new database but also forms a management file based on head identification information of a head used in the output unit.
