Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a chart data generating unit that generates density adjustment chart data; a printing unit that prints a density adjustment chart where the reference patterns and the adjustment patterns of each pattern are juxtaposed, based on the density adjustment chart data; a receiving unit that receives the input of a density adjustment value of an arbitrary pattern; a gradation correcting unit that corrects gradation of the arbitrary pattern based on the density adjustment value of the arbitrary pattern that is received by the receiving unit; and a reconstructing unit that reconstructs density adjustment chart data used to juxtapose and print the reference patterns and density-corrected adjustment patterns for only pattern data of the patterns where the receiving unit receives the density adjustment value.
