Abstract
In an electrographic color printing process in which a series of edge-enhanced color separation images are sequentially transferred, in registration, from a recording element to a receiver sheet, the level of edge enhancement applied to each color separation image is gradually reduced so that the fast transferred image receives the greatest amount of edge enhancement, and the last-transferred image receives the least. The effect of this reduction in edge enhancement from image-to-image is a reduction in the graininess of the composite color print.
