Abstract
An image forming system including: a two-component developer; and an image forming apparatus including at least one of a photoreceptor including a support made of an aluminum alloy or a developer bearing member including a developing sleeve made of an aluminum alloy. A static resistance value of a carrier contained in the two-component developer is in a range of 108 Ω·cm or more and less than 1012 Ω·cm. A silicon content in the aluminum alloy forming at least the support of the photoreceptor or the developing sleeve of the developer bearing member is in a range of more than 0.6% by mass and 12.6% by mass or less.
Claims8
An image forming system comprising:
- a two-component developer;
- and
- an image forming apparatus comprising at least one of a photoreceptor including a support made of an aluminum alloy or a developer bearing member including a developing sleeve made of an aluminum alloy, wherein
- a static resistance value of a carrier contained in the two-component developer is in a range of 108 Ω·cm or more and less than 1012 Ω·cm, and
- a silicon content in the aluminum alloy forming at least the support of the photoreceptor or the developing sleeve of the developer bearing member is in a range of more than 0.6% by mass and 12.6% by mass or less.
An image forming method using:
- a two-component developer;
- and
- an image forming apparatus comprising at least one of a photoreceptor including a support made of an aluminum alloy or a developer bearing member including a developing sleeve made of an aluminum alloy, wherein
- a static resistance value of a carrier contained in the two-component developer is in a range of 108 Ω·cm or more and less than 1012 Ω·cm, and
- a silicon content in the aluminum alloy forming at least the support of the photoreceptor or the developing sleeve of the developer bearing member is in a range of more than 0.6% by mass and 12.6% by mass or less.
