An apparatus for developing a latent electrostatic image formed on a photoconductive recording material in a dry type electrophotographic copying machine typically employing a one-component type developer comprises a conductive electrode held in contact with the developer. The electrode is connected to a power source through a switching device and serves to charge the developer to a predetermined polarity with a predetermined potential before the latent image is developed. In this way, the latent image can be developed selectively as either a normal image or a reverse image quite easily.
