Patent ID: 6853824

Claim:
An electrophotographic endless belt comprising: a beltlike substrate; a meandering-preventive member; and a position detection member, wherein said meandering-preventive member is disposed on the inner-periphery side of one end portion of said beltlike substrate, wherein said position detection member is disposed on the outer-periphery side of the other end portion of said beltlike substrate, wherein said meandering-preventive member and said position detection member are kept apart by a distance of from 200 mm to 250 mm in the width direction of said electrophotographic endless belt, wherein said beltlike substrate contains a thermoplastic resin as a binder resin, and wherein said beltlike substrate has a 25 μm×25 μm surface total current value of from 300 nA to 2,000 nA at the time of application of 100 V as measured by scanning probe microscopy.
