Abstract
A color electrostatographic printer apparatus applies respective color separation toner images to a receiver member to form a color image. A fuser station fuses, or at least tacks, the color image to the receiver. A clear toner overcoat is then applied to the fused color toner image using an inverse mask, and enhanced glossing of the image is provided by a belt glosser to improve color gamut.
