Abstract

A color image processing apparatus in which a latent image corresponding to one of the color components of an original document is recorded on an image receiving member. The original document is scanned and a plurality of color components of the original document are detected. Color signals, representative of each one of the plurality of color components detected, are generated. As the latent image is being recorded on the image receiving member, those regions of the latent image wherein the color signals have a preselected relationship to one another are erased.
