An electrophotographic apparatus which simultaneously performs image exposure and development, including an electrophotographic photosensitive body having a conductive layer, an electrophotoconductive layer, and an electric charge supply layer for contacting a developer sequentially formed on a translucent substrate, wherein a value of the surface energy of the outer layer of the photosensitive body is 30 dyne/cm or less in order to present fogging generated during development.

Electrophotographic apparatus performing image exposure and development

An electrophotographic apparatus for simultaneously performing image exposure and development including an electrophotographic photosensitive body comprising a conductive layer and an electrophotographic photosensitive layer formed on the translucent substrate. An optical system is provided for exposing the image from the side of the translucent substrate of the photosensitive body, and a developer apparatus is arranged opposing to the side of photosensitive layer of the exposure position of the photosensitive body for supplying developer charged with the developing bias.
