Abstract:
1. A photosensitive member unit detachably mountable to each of a plurality of image forming apparatuses including a voltage supplying mechanism adapted to different commercial power sources, said photosensitive member unit comprising: a photosensitive member on which an electrostatic image is to be formed; a resistor configured and positioned to generate heat so as to heat said photosensitive member by energization; and a plurality of contact portions, configured and positioned to be selectively connectable to the voltage supplying mechanism, including a first contact portion and a second contact portion which are connected to both ends of said resistor and including a third contact portion connected so as to divide said resistor into two branches; wherein at least one of the contact portions used for supplying a voltage to said resistor is common to different commercial power source voltages.
