Abstract

A two-component toner is directly supplied to a brush which is cyclically transferred while in resilient contact with a latent image carrier for developing an electrostatic latent image on the latent image carrier. After the image has been developed by the toner, residual toner is directly recovered from the brush for uniformizing the toner density on the brush.
