Abstract:
There are provided a method of manufacturing an electrophotographic photoreceptor which achieves excellent enduring characteristics and reduction in occurrence of image defects, a method of manufacturing an image forming apparatus, and an electrophotographic photoreceptor manufacturing apparatus. A method of manufacturing an electrophotographic photoreceptor includes a step of roughening an outer surface of a cylindrical base body so that a surface roughness of the outer surface of the cylindrical base body satisfies Str≥0.70, in which Str denotes texture aspect ratio; a step of forming a charge injection blocking layer on the outer surface of the cylindrical base body; a step of forming a photoconductive layer on the charge injection blocking layer; and a step of forming a surface layer on the photoconductive layer.

Claim (Index 5):
The method of manufacturing an electrophotographic photoreceptor according to  claim 1 , wherein the surface roughness of the outer surface of the cylindrical base body satisfies Sal\u22648.4 \u03bcm in a state where the step of roughening has been performed, in which Sal denotes shortest autocorrelation length.
