Zusammenfassung:	The invention relates generally to development apparatus for mixing and applying developer material to a latent image on an image-bearing member in an electrostatographic reproduction machine, such as a copier or printer. More particularly, this invention relates to a blender (100) of the type for mixing electrostatographic developer comprising a plurality of blender segments (118) mounted on a shaft (112). A resilient spacer (122) is provided, according to an aspect of the invention, wherein said resilient spacer and said plurality of blender segments are compressed between said pair of stops (114,116). Residual looseness due to tolerance stack-up is eliminated.
