Abstract
A conductive layer,and a photoconductive layer,are laminated on a support member,made of resin so that an electrophotographic master plate for printing is constituted. Electrode portions,electrically connected to the conductive layer,are formed on the widthwise directional side surfaces. When development is performed, the electrode portions,are brought into contact with an electrode,adjacent to the support member,so that the potential of the conductive layer,is made to be the same as the potential of the electrode,adjacent to the support member,though the electrode portions,. The developing apparatus has a structure for causing the electrode portions,to be grounded by a provided roller made of stainless steel and/or a conductive brush.
