摘要： An image development method and apparatus in which image-wise charging of a toner layer (58) is accomplished by induced air breakdown electrical discharge such that free mobile ions are introduced in the vicinity of an electrostatic latent image coated with a layer of developing material. The latent image causes the free mobile ions to flow in an image-wise ion stream corresponding to the latent image, which, in turn, leads to image-wise charging of the toner layer (58), such that the toner layer (58) itself becomes the latent image carrier. The latent image carrying toner layer is subsequently developed and transferred to a copy substrate to produce an output document (70).

摘要： An image development method and apparatus, wherein an imaging member (12) having an imaging surface is provided with a layer of marking material (58) thereon, and an electrostatic latent image is created (by 40) in the layer of marking material (58). Image-wise charging of the layer of marking material (58) is accomplished by a wide beam ion source (60) such that free mobile ions are introduced in the vicinity of an electrostatic latent image associated with the imaging member having the layer of marking material (58) coated thereon. The latent image associated with the imaging member causes the free mobile ions to flow in an image-wise ion stream corresponding to the latent image, which, in turn, leads to image-wise charging of the toner layer (58), such that the toner layer itself becomes the latent image carrier. The latent image carrying toner layer is subsequently developed and transferred to a copy substrate (70) to produce an output document.

摘要： An image development method and apparatus, wherein a support member (12) is provided with a layer (58) of marking material thereon, and an electrostatic latent image is created in the layer of marking material via image-wise charging of the layer of marking material by a selectively controllable charging device (60) for directing a charge stream toward the support member (12) having the layer (58) of marking material coated thereon. The image-wise charge stream corresponds to the latent image, which, in turn, leads to image-wise charging of the toner layer (58), such that the toner layer itself becomes the latent image carrier. The latent image carrying toner layer is subsequently developed and transferred to a copy substrate (70) to produce an output document.
