Abstract (en)
The electrostatic charge carried on the photoconductive coating surface of an electrophotographic member is discharged in certain areas by increasing the temperature thereof trough application of heat energy. A thermal imaging head provides a plurality of point source heat elements linearly arranged across the width of the charged surface. Electrical current is passed through the resistive heat elements to dissipate energy which is transferred to the member.
