Systems and methods are provided for controlling cleaning devices in image forming apparatus electrostatic image forming apparatus. Such systems may include a charge receptor, movable in a process direction, defining a main surface. A toner application device applies toner to the charge receptor, and is configured to place a lubrication stripe including the toner on a portion of the main surface of the charge receptor at a selected time. A primary cleaning device cleans the main surface of the charge receptor, and includes at least one biased member having an effective area associated with the main surface relative to motion of the charge receptor. A secondary cleaning device is configured to engage the main surface of the charge receptor downstream of the biased member, and a control system reverses a bias on the biased member during a time when a lubrication stripe is in the effective area of the biased member.
