Abstract
An electrophotographic recording apparatus including a photosensitive drum, a charging section, an exposure section, a developing section, and a transfer section. The charging section is used for recharging the photosensitive drum. In the electrophotographic recording apparatus, the photosensitive drum is recharged after a developed image is transferred to a transfer sheet. Thus, after the transfer section is stopped, the charging and developing sections remain active for at least a rotation of the photosensitive drum. Accordingly, the electric voltage level of the photosensitive drum is uniform.
