Abstract

A corona generating device of the type in which a control grid adjacent a corona generating electrode regulates the charge deposited onto an imaging surface. The control grid defines elongated apertures located in alignment with the electrode, extending along a portion thereof wherein the control grid is adapted to selectively control the charge deposited on the imaging surface area for preventing development of the edge regions thereof.
