    摘要: A process cartridge includes a protective agent, a photoconductor, a charging unit, a development unit, a cleaning unit, and an application unit. The protective agent includes paraffin as main component. The photoconductor has a surface including polycarbonate applied with the protective agent. The development unit develops a latent image on the photoconductor. The cleaning unit removes materials remaining on the photoconductor. The application unit applies the protective agent to the surface of photoconductor. One peak in a given binding energy range is used to determine a coating condition of the photoconductor coated by the agent. The coating condition is determined by comparing an area ratio A0 before applying the agent and an area ratio A after applying the agent, each of which is an area ratio with respect to a total area of C1s spectrum of the photoconductor. The coating ratio of the photoconductor is computed by (A0−A)/A0×100.

    摘要: A toner image fixing method for producing a fixed image having good image qualities without hot-offset even when toner having a relatively low fixing temperature is employed by an image forming apparatus having a fixing unit including two fixing members such that an image formed of thermofusible toner on an image supporting material is fixed by heating at a nipped section of the two fixing members, wherein a ratio of a first adhesion constant to a second adhesion constant, .mu..sub.s-b (1)/.mu..sub.s-b (2), of a surface of a fixing member contacting the thermofusible toner image is less than about 8.0. An adhesion constant .mu..sub.s-b (n) is represented by:.mu..sub.s-b (n)=(cos .theta..sub.b -cos .theta..sub.s)/sin .theta..sub.b,wherein n is 1 or 2, .theta..sub.b and .theta..sub.s represent a receding contact angle and a static contact angle of the surface of the fixing member, respectively, which are measured using a liquid having a dipole moment of greater than about 3.0 debye when n is 1 and measured using another liquid having a dipole moment of 0.0 debye when n is 2.
