complete the job as needed the mip consists of memory for storing digital image input received from the rip once the images are in mip memory they can be repeatedly read from memory and output to the render circuit the amount of memory required to store a given number of images can be reduced by compressing the images therefore the images are compressed prior to mip memory storage then decompressed while being read from mip memory the output of the mip is provided to an image render circuit 39 which alters the image and provides the altered image to the writer interface 32 otherwise known as a write head print head etc which applies exposure parameters to the exposure medium such as a photoconductor 18 after exposure the portion of exposure medium belt 18 bearing the latent charge images travels to a development station 35 development station 35 includes a magnetic brush in juxtaposition to the belt 18 magnetic brush development stations are well known in the art and are preferred in many applications alternatively other known types of development stations or devices may be used plural development stations 35 may be provided for developing images in plural colors or from toners of different physical characteristics full process color electrographic printing is accomplished by utilizing this process for each of four toner colors e g black cyan magenta yellow upon the imaged portion of belt 18 reaching development station 35 lcu 24 selectively activates development station 35 to apply toner to belt 18 by moving backup roller or bar 35 a against belt.
