摘要:
The invention provides an electrophotographic photoreceptor having a cylindrical support, and a charge-generating layer and a charge-transporting layer on or above the cylindrical support, wherein the thickness of the charge-generating layer is increased from the central portion in the axial direction of the cylindrical support towards both end portions thereof, and the difference in thickness between the two end portions is 2.5% or less of an average thickness of the charge-generating layer. Also disclosed are a method of producing the electrophotographic photoreceptor, a process cartridge including the electrophotographic photoreceptor, and an image-forming apparatus.

An aspect of the present invention provides a method of manufacturing an electrophotographic photoreceptor. The method includes forming at least one layer selected from the group consisting of an undercoat layer, a photosensitive layer, and a protective layer, by jetting by an inkjet method a first coating liquid and a second coating liquid from liquid drop discharging heads which are different from each other, and mixing the first coating liquid and the second coating liquid on a conductive substrate. The first coating liquid and the second coating liquid react with each other when they are mixed.

摘要:
A coating apparatus comprises a coating vessel holding a coating liquid with a liquid leakage preventing member having an opening. A cylindrical member such as a cylindrical support for supporting a photosensitive member is inserted into the opening and the cylindrical member is moved relative to the coating liquid vessel in the vertical direction. A scraping member for scraping the coating liquid is at least partially immersed in the coating liquid, or is positioned above the surface of the coating liquid in the coating liquid vessel, the scraping member being almost concentric to the cylindrical member and movable in the radial direction of the cylindrical member. The cylindrical member is axially aligned with the scraping member using coating liquid pressure applied to the scraping member to coincide the center of the scraping member with the center of the cylindrical member. This invention provides an apparatus and method for forming a coated layer having a uniform layer thickness free of unevenness on the outer periphery of a cylindrical member such as an electrophotographic photosensitive support at a high production rate inexpensively.
