A recording system comprising a recording apparatus, a recording method and a program to control the recording apparatus for recording a color image on a recording medium by utilizing a recording head on which a plurality of recording elements are arranged, is provided. The recording system further comprising, a compensation means to compensate a position to be recorded by a recording element which does not execute a recording operation among the plurality of recording elements, by different color dots from those of the recording element which does not execute the recording operation. The compensation means is controlled such that the number of the compensation dots recorded by the compensation means is less than the number of dots to be formed originally by the recording element which does not execute recording operation and that lightness per a determined area of an image obtained by the compensation dots is within a range of +/- 20% of that to be obtained by dots from the recording element which does not execute the recording operation. The recording system can dissolve nonuniformity in the recorded image such as white streaks and the like generated by non-eject dots and can make the nonuniformity be unrecognized by human eyes. In addition the recording system by the invention can suppress raising costs of the recording head and can raise recording rates much faster.
