Abstract

In multi-color reversal development, good color balance is obtained by changing the time duration of exposure for each different color frame. A dot printer apparatus produces a series of different color-resolved electrostatic latent images on a recording member. The apparatus includes an array of discrete elements for dot recording on the recording medium. The elements are selectively enable for predetermined periods of time during a cycle of operation to form a color-resolved electrostatic latent image on the recording member. Each charge latent image is developed with selected toner particles according to its resolved color. A control signal representative at least in part of the resolved color of each latent image is produced, and the control signal determines the enablement time of the elements during each cycle of operation according to each resolved color.
