DAD, DAD, DAD single-pass color printing

摘要

A method for and apparatus for creating partial gamut color images in a single pass. A plurality of latent discharged area images are formed using a single exposure. A first discharged area image is developed followed by recharging of the photoreceptor containing the images. The images are then subjected to a partial erase step followed by the development of a second discharged area image. All images formed subsequent to the first discharged image except for the last image are preceded by recharging and partial erase to thereby optimize development and cleaning fields.
