A concrete concealed pattern attaching mechanism is configured to form the particular concealed pattern onto the color image without fail, in the case of forming a normal image, on the basis of the hardware control signal and the software control signal, and when no color image data are received, a test pattern selected by a selection section is synthesized with output image data.
