ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for correcting image parameters for each of several image forming apparatuses networked together are provided. In the present method and apparatus, one device, which can be one of the networked image forming apparatuses, operates as an image parameter correction apparatus. The image parameter correction apparatus reads in a prescribed image formed by each image forming apparatus, and calculates image parameter correction values for each image forming apparatus. The image parameter correction values for each image forming apparatus are calculated by comparing image parameters for the corresponding scanned prescribed image with reference image parameters. The image parameter correction values for each image forming apparatus are then transmitted to the corresponding image forming apparatus. In the case where one of the networked image forming apparatuses serves as the image parameter correction apparatus, that apparatus also forms a prescribed image, and derives the reference image parameters from its own prescribed image, which is scanned in along with the prescribed images formed by the other image forming apparatuses.
