Abstract
A color electrographic recording apparatus is provided to produce on a recording medium a composite color image comprising a plurality of superimposed component images of different colors, e.g., magenta, cyan, yellow and black. The apparatus includes means for transporting the recording medium in opposite directions along a predetermined path through the electrographic recording apparatus, a recording station in the path and having a recording head with electrode means for forming a latent image on the recording medium, control means operative to energize the electrode means to create a latent image on the recording medium, a plurality of developing means adjacent either one side or both sides of the recording station in the path, each of the developing means for developing a latent image produced on the recording medium at the recording station into a corresponding visible component image of a respective color. The transport means is operative to pass a section of the recording medium through the recording station to form a first component latent image followed by its respective color development and reverse the direction of medium transport to permit formation of a next component…
