Abstract:
1. A method for forming images on a photoreceptor comprising: a) depositing an electrostatic latent image on a surface of a photoreceptor comprising a substrate; a charge transport layer comprising charge transport materials dispersed therein; and an overcoat layer positioned on said charge transport layer, wherein said overcoat layer has an Ra of from about 0.01 to about 0.1 μm and comprises a crosslinkable alcohol-soluble polyamide in an amount of from about 20 percent to about 90 percent of total solids and having the following Formula II,  wherein R b) applying a developer material via a development component to said photoreceptor surface to develop said electrostatic latent image to form a developed image on said photoreceptor surface, wherein said developer material comprises emulsion aggregation toner, and further wherein at least one of said additives creates a texturized surface on said photoreceptor surface, and wherein said titanium dioxide and silica reduce a contact area between said emulsion aggregation toners and said photoreceptor surface thereby enabling increased cleaning of said emulsion aggregation toners and wherein a contact angle of the outer layer is from about 85 to 91°.
