ABSTRACT:
A printer includes a RIP for converting a received stream of image instructions into electrical image signals and a hybrid marking engine with at least one stage operable in an asynchronous mode, wherein a page can be processed in portions, and at least one stage restricted to synchronous operation, wherein the synchronous stage runs at a predetermined fixed speed during its entire processing of a page. The marking engine may be electrostatographic device having an asynchronous writer stage and a synchronous development stage, transfer stage, or fusing stage. The transfer stage may operate asynchronously from the developer such that there is an indeterminate time period between the development operation and the transfer operation.
