Abstract
A blade cleaner for removing toner from a charge-retentive surface. The cleaner is characterized by the provision of a powder cloud preventing shield which together with the blade forms a cavity for trapping toner removed from the surface to thereby create a pile of toner at the cleaning edge of the blade which prevents powder clouding.
