<p>A method and apparatus to develop electrostatic images using a mist (2) which is substantially water and a colourant. Mist (2) is transported from a generation station (1) to a development station (5) via a development electrode (3). Unused mist may be recycled or extracted (8). The mist may be size classified before development so that a consistent and desired resolution is obtained. Classification by size may be achieved by passing the mist in an arcuate path (4) from the generation station (1) to the development station (5).</p> |
