Abstract:
To reduce toner consumption for sample output.
An output condition (confirmation condition) which a user confirms by sample output is set by a confirmation condition setting part 70, and adoption or non-adoption of a mode for reducing toner consumption (toner reduction mode) is set by a toner reduction mode setting part 80 in accordance with whether the confirmation condition is related to density or not. When the use of the toner reduction mode is set, an output condition for less toner consumption such as the state that the thinnest density is set in a density adjustment condition is set by a toner reduction processing part 100, and a sample is outputted on the basis of this output condition to reduce toner consumption.
