Abstract
A photoreceptor dark current leakage detecting device for use in determining the temperature induced current leakage of photoreceptors. The device as aforesaid comprises a miniature copy of, or segment from a photoreceptor class with electrical leads attached thereto and by means of which a reference bias can be applied thereacross. A current sensing meter introduced in circuit with the device measures current leakage. In a second embodiment, output from the device controls the operating bias on one or more of the components of an electrostatic reproduction machine to compensate for changes in photoreceptor current leakage.
