An electrophotographic copier comprises a photosensitive drum including a photoconductive layer and an outer insulative layer. Apparatus for forming and developing an image of an original on the drum surface is selectively supported peripherally thereof as is apparatus for feeding copy material to the drum surface, for transferring developed images to the copy paper and for cleaning the drum surface. The developing, image transfer, fixing, cleaning, and copy separating devices are supported on a single unitary support member which is manually movable into and out of the operative position adjacent to the drum surface. A carrier for supporting the original is arranged for reciprocating movement with respect to the drum. Preferred embodiments of such peripherally supported apparatus are also disclosed. |
