| 20100221044 | APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR SUPPRESSING PHOTORECEPTOR IMAGE GHOST - The presently disclosed embodiments are directed to charging devices which produce a negative corona. The present embodiments pertain to the use of a positive charging device, such as a scorotron, after the erase lamp and before negative charging station in the xerographic cyclic to mitigate the undesirable changes in charge transport layer electrical properties that result from exposure to corona while negatively charging the photoreceptor during latent image formation. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20100253358 | CONTACTLESS SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ELECTROSTATIC SENSING WITH A HIGH SPATIAL RESOLUTION - In the illustrated embodiment of the invention a scanning system is provided for scanning a chargeable surface for latent image detection. The chargeable surface is charged to a first potential, and a scanner probe is charged to a second potential within a predetermined potential difference from the first potential. The scanner probe is oscillated at a selected frequency and reads or measures the oscillation current that is induced from the oscillation and detects any latent images or other electrostatic distributions on the chargeable surface. A processor processes the probe measurements for determining the potential of a latent image on the chargeable surface based on the scanner probe readings. | 10-07-2010 |
