Imaging member

An imaging member comprising

• a supporting substrate,
• a charge transport layer,
• a charge generating layer,
• a cross linked silicone rubber, and
• a resilient, electrically insulating overcoating layer.

A process comprising

• providing an imaging member comprising
• a supporting substrate with a charge injecting surface,
• an optional hole blocking layer,
• an optional adhesive layer,
• a charge transport layer,
• a charge generating layer,
• an optional charge trapping layer,
• a cross linked silicone rubber, and
• a resilient, electrically insulating overcoating layer, the overcoating layer having an exposed imaging surface,
• forming a uniform charge of a first polarity on the imaging surface,
• supplying charges of a second polarity to the charge injecting surface whereby the charges of a second polarity are injected into the transport layer and migrate to the overcoat layer,
• supplying a charge of a second polarity to the imaging surface to neutralize the charge of the first polarity on the imaging surface,
• exposing the imaging surface to activating radiation in image configuration to form an electrostatic latent image,
• developing the electrostatic latent image with marking particles to form a marking particle image corresponding to the latent image, and optionally transferring the marking particle image to a receiving member.
