<p>An electronic image processing apparatus employing electrostatic charging comprises an image forming part (10) having an electrostatic charger (21) and a section (35,36,38) for obstructing optical flare emitted toward the image forming part (10). The optical flare obstructing section (35,36,38) includes a coating layer made of a coating material for obstructing optical flare, which includes a black ozone-eliminating substance and an organic binder to disperse the substance. Preferably, the image forming part (10) is located in a process cartridge (35) which has an air duct (36) for discharging air from around the image forming part (100 to the interior of the electronic image processing apparatus. The air duct (36) includes two staggered, parallel series of louvres (38) arranged so that each slat (38) overlaps the opposite opening (39) between a pair of adjacent slats (38). The louvres (38) are coated with the coating material. The electronic image processing apparatus may be, for example a copying machine or a laser printer.</p> |
