整時間の削減が図れる効果がある。As explained above, the present invention utilizes a means that receives an image signal transmitted through a facsimile line, integrates the amount of black data in this image signal, and calculates the area ratio of black data. Since the amount of ink that was previously set based on empirical judgment can be set quantitatively, the adjustment time can be significantly reduced and the amount of paper waste can be reduced. Additionally, if you change the paper quality or ink type, it is necessary to adjust the ink amount according to the paper quality or ink type, but since you can set the correction value that suits the paper quality and ink type in advance, you can adjust the ink amount accordingly. This has the effect that the settings can be carried out quantitatively and the adjustment time can be reduced.
