Abstract
An electrophotographic photoreceptor includes a conductive substrate, a photosensitive layer, and a protective layer. The protective layer is a top surface layer of the electrophotographic photoreceptor. The protective layer includes a photocurable resin. The photosensitive layer includes a charge generating agent and a hole transporting agent. The hole transporting agent has a molecular weight of 580 or more and includes a compound represented by a formula (1), (2), (3), or (4).
