Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a color image forming machine having a plurality of xerographic marking engines to realize variable gloss.SOLUTION: These marking engines each form associated color separations that are combined to produce a color print image. Each marking engine includes a dual replenisher assembly having a first reservoir 202 and a second reservoir 212 containing respective toners of different gloss levels. The reservoirs each include one or more auger conveyors separately and independently controlled for dispensing the respective toners into a developer to continuously vary the gloss level of the toner in the developer.
