A photoreceptor charging device, already provided in an electrophotographic printing machine, is used to determine the voltage potential of a portion of the photoreceptor located adjacent to the photoreceptor charging device. In particular, an operating condition of the photoreceptor charging device, such as, for example, the total current supplied to a coronode and to a grid of the photoreceptor charging device, or the voltage potential of the grid of the photoreceptor charging device when the total current is a predetermined, relatively small value, is used to determine the voltage potential of the photoreceptor adjacent to the charging device.
