Abstract

An image forming apparatus for recording of a target image onto a photosensitive material film corresponding to the photosensitive material film, includes: storage section that stores the data corresponding to the photosensitive material film; density measuring section that measures a density of a density test pattern recorded on the photosensitive material film; and controlling section that controls recording the density test pattern onto the photosensitive material film, and determines the photosensitive material film on the basis of a measurement value of the density of the density test pattern measured by the density measuring section, and controls reading out data corresponding to the photosensitive material film from the storage section, and recording the target image onto the photosensitive material film.

Claims (12)

1 . An image forming apparatus for recording of a target image onto a photosensitive material film on the basis of a data corresponding to the photosensitive material film, comprising:

a storage section that stores the data corresponding to the photosensitive material film;

a density measuring section that measures a density of a density test pattern recorded on the photosensitive material film; and

a controlling section that controls recording the density test pattern onto the photosensitive material film, and determines the photosensitive material film on the basis of a measurement value of the density of the density test pattern, the measurement value measured by the density measuring section, and controls reading out the data corresponding to the photosensitive material film from the storage section, and then recording the target image onto the photosensitive material film.

2 . The image forming apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the data corresponding to the photosensitive material film is at least one selected from:

a calibration coefficient data for the density measuring section;

a sharpness correction coefficient data to be applied when sharpness correction is performed on the target image;

a uniformity correction coefficient data to be applied when uniformity correction is performed on the target image;

a density correction data to be applied when density correction is performed on the target image; and

a heating data to be applied when thermal development is performed on the photosensitive material film in which the target image is recorded as a latent image.

3 . The image forming apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the measurement value is at least one selected from:

a maximum density, a minimum density, a necessary energy for a density, and a energy difference between a first energy for a density and a second energy for a density, which are measured from the density test pattern by the density measuring section.
