Abstract
In some embodiments, a drum unit may include an electrophotographic photosensitive member having a base member and a photosensitive layer on the base member. An embodiment may include a cleaning blade configured to abut the photosensitive layer to remove a developer remaining on the photosensitive layer of the electrophotographic photosensitive member. Some embodiments may include side seals disposed at both ends of the cleaning blade to inhibit leakage of the developer. In some embodiments, a portion of a side seal may be in contact with at least a portion of the surface and an end face of the photosensitive layer.
