A panel-type input device including a pair of electrode plates, each electrode plate having a substrate and a conductive coat provided on a surface of the substrate, the conductive coat of each electrode plate being formed from a conducting polymer. The conductive coat of each electrode plate includes a detecting area adapted to detect a touch input and an inoperative area disposed adjacent to the detecting area, the inoperative area having a surface resistivity higher than a surface resistivity of the detecting area. A parallel electrode pair adapted to apply a voltage to the conductive coat is formed in the detecting area, and conductors connected to the parallel electrode pair are formed in the inoperative area. The inoperative area insulates the conductors from the detecting area.

An image forming device is provided which can prolong the service life of a fixing roll and provide a good anti-offset property, an image having high surface smoothness and good printing properties. A fixer for electrophotography, wherein an electrostatic latent image is developed, comprises a fluororesin-coated fixing roll (2, 9) for fixing a toner and a mechanism (5, 12, 12a, 12b) for coating a fluorosilicone polymer as a release agent onto the surface of the fixing roll.

Image forming device

A magnetic brush developer for electrophotography by the reversal development system where a uniform positive charge is imparted to a photoconductive insulator, the insulator is irradiated with a light image to form an electrostatic latent image and the latent image is developed and visualized by a positively charged toner. The developer comprises a carrier of granulated magnetite particles, the surfaces of which are coated with a thermosetting resin containing a fine fluoropolymer powder and a fine magnetite or carbon black powder dispersed therein. When this developer is used, adhesion of the toner to the sleeve is not only prevented at the initial stage of printing but also after continuous printing, and even if continuous printing does conducted, the charge quantity is not reduce, therefore print quality does not degrade.
