A method of restoring a used organic photoreceptor which includes a supporting substrate having a photoconductor layer contained on said substrate and an overlaying layer of charge transport material. The photoreceptor is heated to a temperature near or above the glass transition temperature of the charge transport layer for a time sufficient to allow for flowing and/or melting of the top surface of the charge transport layer, and then cooled to room temperature, followed by applying a new layer of charge transport material over the existing charge transport layer.

Rejuvenated organic photoreceptor and method

An organic photosensitive member for use in electrophotography comprising a conductive substrate and one or more electrically operative layers is disclosed. The imaging layer of the member contains from about 0.5 to about 20 percent of a toner release agent selected from the group of materials composed of stearates, silicon oxides, and fluorocarbons.

Electrophotographic photoreceptor containing a toner release material

An arsenic-selenium photoreceptor is provided wherein said photoreceptor is characterized by a gradient concentration of arsenic increasing from the bottom surface to the top surface of the photoreceptor such that the arsenic concentration is about 5 wt. % at a depth of about 5 to 10 microns from the top surface of the photoreceptor and is about 30 to 40 wt. % at the top surface of the photoreceptor.
