ABSTRACT:
An image processing apparatus for converting input color image signals to image recording signals to be sent to an image forming apparatus. The image processing apparatus comprises: a first color converting unit for converting the input color image signals to three-variable color signals independent of devices; a second color converting unit for converting the three-variable color signals to the image recording signals; and a parameter determining unit for determining parameters of the first color converting unit. The parameter determining unit determines the parameters so as to make characteristic colors in the input color image signals coincide with predetermined colors and to maintain linearities of color reproduction characteristics of an output image from the image forming apparatus.
