A spacing device for image processing systems to maintain a development gap between an image-receiving member and a developer roller thereby facilitating efficient development and consistently maintaining high image quality and methods for manufacturing and using the same. The spacing device comprises one or more spacing members that have preselected lengths and that are configured to be coupled with, and extend from, an imaging-receiving module and/or a developer cartridge of an image processing system. When the image processing system is properly assembled, a predetermined development gap is formed between an image-receiving member of the imaging-receiving module and a developer roller of the developer cartridge, and the spacing members are disposed substantially between, and in contact with, the imaging-receiving module and the developer cartridge. The spacing members, being formed from a substantially rigid material, are configured to maintain the predetermined development gap.
