ABSTRACT:
A technology that contributes to improvement of visibility of an image containing an achromatic color is provided. A color space information acquiring unit for acquiring color space information of a pixel contained in image data; a saturation determination unit for determining the saturation of the pixel whose color space information is acquired on the basis of the color space information acquired by the color space information acquiring unit; and a color space information conversion unit for converting the color space information of the pixel whose saturation is determined not to exceed a predetermined threshold by the saturation determination unit out of the pixels contained in the image data into the color space information to be printed with black toner by a predetermined image forming apparatus are provided.
