ABSTRACT:
The estimated densities of an image input from a line sensor are calculated by density estimating sections, each having a scanning aperture, and multiple circuits. Thereafter, the directions in which the density of the image changes are identified by comparators. An aperture selecting section selects a scanning aperture to be used as a halftone density on the basis of the identification result and the determination result obtained by an image quality determining section, which result indicates whether the input image is a dither image or a binary image. Subsequently, re-dither processing or binarization processing is performed by an image processing section in accordance with the determination result obtained by the image quality determining section.
