A method of electroforming a non-ferromagnetic substrate for use in an electrostatographic imaging member includes electroforming a non-ferromagnetic substrate of nickel and one of phosphorus, tin and copper. The substrate can be cylindrical shaped and have a substantially constant inner diameter and outer diameter along a length of the substrate. The substrates can be used in various electrostatographic imaging members including electrographic and electrophotographic imaging members. The methods of this invention can provide seamless imaging members such as photoreceptors that can be used in apparatus that include magnetic developer systems, without adversely interacting with magnetic brushes and magnetic toners.

Non-magnetic photoreceptor substrate and method of making a non-magnetic photoreceptor substrate

A photoreceptor fabrication method involving a photoreceptor substrate having a metal surface, comprising etching the metal surface of the photoreceptor substrate with an etching solution and forming a metal oxide layer on the metal surface with the etching solution, wherein the etching of the metal surface and the forming of the metal oxide layer are conducted in the absence of an electric current.

Photoreceptor fabrication method

A method for producing a photoreceptor having a substrate subjected to a surface finishing treatment to result in a finished substrate surface, wherein the method includes:

Electrochemical surface treatment

A developer composition with a conductivity of from about 10.sup.-6 to about 10.sup.-12 (ohm-cm).sup.-1 over a toner concentration of from about 1 to about 6 weight percent, which developer is comprised of a toner containing resin particles, pigment particles and a metal salt of a fatty acid; and carrier particles with rough surfaces thereon.
