Abstract: The magnetic brush development apparatus comprises two magnetic rollers, namely a development roller for developing a latent electrostatic image and a developer feed roller for supplying a magnetic developer to the development roller. The quantity of the magnetic developer transferred from the developer feed roller to the development roller is initially regulated by a particular arrangement of the magnets disposed in the development roller and the developer feed roller. Furthermore, the quantity of the magnetic developer on the development roller is regulated by a doctor member prior to development. In order to keep the bulk density of the developer on the development roller constant, a preliminary pressure plate is provided for applying pressure to the developer on the development roller so that a uniform and high bulk density magnetic brush is formed on the development roller.
