Process for preparing an electrophotographic imaging member

A process for preparing an electrophotographic imaging member comprising a substrate having an electrically conductive surface, a charge generating layer and a charge transport layer contiguous to said charge generating layer, said process comprising preparing a dispersion of finely divided photoconductive particles in a fugitive liquid in which said particles are substantially insoluble, said liquid comprising at least 0.25 percent by weight of an alcohol, based on the total weight of said liquid, said dispersion being substantially free of any film forming polymer, applying a thin coating of said dispersion on a substrate, evaporating substantially all of said liquid from said coating, and embedding said particles in a film forming polymer matrix to form said charge generating layer.
