Abstract
In a case where a determination is made that a density of a pixel of interest is greater than a threshold, or in a case where a pixel having a greater density than the threshold is present in a neighborhood of the pixel of interest at a predetermined distance from the pixel of interest, exposure with intensity corresponding to a density of the pixel of interest to which a predetermined density has not been added is performed on a photoreceptor drum at a position corresponding to the pixel of interest. Otherwise, exposure with intensity corresponding to a density of the pixel of interest to which the predetermined density has been added is performed on the photoreceptor drum at the position corresponding to the pixel of interest.
