Abstract

An image recording apparatus includes a recording unit integrally having an image forming recording head and a memory for storing a correction datum for correcting non-uniform image formation property; a reader for reading the correction datum from the memory; and a device for changing image forming conditions in accordance with the correction datum read by the reader. The apparatus also can alter the image forming conditions changed by the changing device when the non-uniformity of the recording unit changes.
