Abstract:
A cleaning blade includes an elastic blade body. The elastic blade body having an edge contacts a surface of a contact object such as a photoconductor. The cleaning blade removes substances on the surface of the contact object that moves in contact with the edge. With respect to an elastic power Y OPC  of the contact object, an elastic power E BL  of the cleaning blade satisfies a relation: Y OPC ≥0.55× E BL −3.33.

Claim (Index 9):
