A write control apparatus is for receiving one page worth of image data and performing processes, and writing an image by exposing a photoconductor. The write control apparatus includes a write control unit including a process function unit for performing the processes; a computer for generating setting values of parameters used by the process function unit; and first and second memories for storing the setting values. When the computer sends a trigger signal to start image formation to the write control unit, the second memory stores one page worth of the setting values stored in the first memory, and the setting values of a desired page among a plurality of pages worth of the setting values stored in the second memory are applied to operations by the process function unit when the write control unit controlled by the computer writes an image of the desired page.
