摘要: An end seal for use in an electrophotographic image forming apparatus uses array of ridges (or grooves) to urge toner inwardly so as help prevent escape. The works conjunction with a cleaning blade. includes blade pocket mating the portions and middle portion having thereon. are angled inward any trapped therebetween away from seals, where can be directed waste reservoir normal fashion. This “snowplowing” action helps outward migration toner, thereby minimizing may composed two or more layers differing materials. There at each cleaner
