- a company that produces a color printed material such as a printing company regularly measures the color of the printed material and adjusts the color of the printing apparatus that printed the printed material in order to maintain the quality of the printed material.
- color adjustment of the printing apparatus for example, original image data called a color chart is printed by the printing apparatus, and each color of each patch in the printed color chart is measured by the color measurement apparatus. Then, the color misregistration amount between the actually measured value of each patch color and the target value of each patch color is evaluated, and the color of the printing apparatus is adjusted according to the evaluation result.
- the color chart includes a plurality of color samples called patches, and each of the plurality of patches is formed with different colors (hue, lightness, saturation) and arranged in a predetermined manner.
- color charts there are various types of such color charts.

- the position of each patch is measured by capturing the entire image of the color chart while feeding the paper along a predetermined one direction, for example, in forward feed, and then, for example, the direction of the forward feed and the position of the measured patch. If the measurement part of the color measuring device is aligned while paper is fed again by reverse feed in the reverse direction, the reproducibility of the paper position becomes worse due to the effect of paper slipping or backlash. As a result, if the measurement part of the color measurement device is moved to the measured patch position, the measurement part of the color measurement device is shifted from the actual patch position, and the color of each patch is appropriately measured by the color measurement device. There was a possibility that it could not be colored.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above-described circumstances, and its purpose is to correct a color chart positional deviation caused by transport and re-transport along one direction of the color chart at a more appropriate position.
- the entire image of the color chart is acquired by conveying the color chart by the conveyance unit, and the partial image of the color chart is re-conveyed by the conveyance unit. Is obtained, and a positional deviation amount of the color chart generated between the transport and the re-transport is obtained based on the whole image and the partial image. Then, the color of each of the plurality of patches in the color chart is measured by the color measurement unit while correcting the measurement position with the obtained positional deviation amount. Therefore, the color measurement device and the color measurement method according to the present invention correct each color chart misalignment caused by the conveyance and the re-conveyance along one direction of the color chart and measure each patch at a more appropriate position. Can color.
