Pigment Red 122, magenta toner and a nickel berry carrier; and azo dye identified in the Colour Index as yellow 97, yellow toner and a nickel berry carrier; charging said photoconductive member for a third time, exposing said photoconductor to the same image through a filter of the remaining primary color and developing the latent electrostatic image with a complementary developer, said developer being the remaining developer of the group consisting of copper tetra-4-(octadecylsulfonamido) phthalocyanine pigment, cyan toner and a methyl terpolymer coated steel carrier; 2,9-dimethylquinacridone pigment identified in the Colour Index as C.I. Pigment Red 122, magenta toner and a nickel berry carrier; and azo dye identified in the Colour Index as Yellow Pigment 97 yellow toner, and a nickel berry carrier.
