Abstract
An example method of printing images in an electrophotographic printer is provided. The method includes developing a first image on a first portion of an intermediate transfer member by receiving a first sequence of color separations from a photo imaging member, and developing a second image on a second portion of the intermediate transfer member by receiving a second sequence of color separations from the photo imaging member. A voltage is applied to the intermediate transfer member during receipt of each color separation from the photo imaging member. During development of the second image at least one null separation is inserted into the second sequence of color separations. During a period for the null separation, a voltage applied to the intermediate transfer member is reduced and the first image is transferred to a conductive substrate.
