Zusammenfassung:A liquid electro-photographic printing system, comprising: a binary ink developer assembly, a power supply arrangement, a switching arrangement, and a controller. The binary ink developer assembly includes a plurality of members defining a flow path for a printing fluid containing charged particles, the plurality of members including a first member and a second member that are arranged to generate an electric field therebetween, the first member having a plurality of segments. The power supply arrangement continuously provides a supply of voltages during a print operation, the voltages including a first voltage and a second voltage having a different voltage level from that of the first voltage. The switching arrangement switches the supply of voltages to the segments of the first member on an individual segment basis, to cause charged particles to be attracted to the first member in the individual segment when the first voltage is supplied to the individual segment and to cause charged particles to be repelled from the first member in the individual segment when the second voltage is supplied to the individual segment. The controller to determine timing of when to switch the supply of voltages to the segments.
