Abstract
Apparatus and method are provided for printing a mono-color image using a single-pass color printer. According to the apparatus and method, dummy toner images are developed onto the photosensitive substances that do not perform an image forming operation so as to correspond to a non-image region of an intermediate transfer belt (or a carrying belt), thus friction between a blade and the photosensitive substances that are not related to the image forming operation can be reduced.
