PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a control method of a surface shape of a photoreceptor to realize an image forming apparatus that has a long life and has reduced printing costs.SOLUTION: Provided is a method of controlling a surface shape of an electrophotographic photoreceptor having a photosensitive layer and a surface layer laminated on a conductive support. A coating material forming the surface layer contains at least a metal oxide filler, a solvent, and a binder component, and at least three types of dispersant; and the surface layer is formed by applying the coating material on the photosensitive layer. |
