Abstract
The present invention relates to an electrophotographic photosensitive member including a cylindrical body and a photosensitive layer. The cylindrical body has provided with an outer circumference, end surfaces and chamfers formed therebetween. The photosensitive layer is formed on the outer circumference of the cylindrical body. The photosensitive layer covers the chamfers. The chamfers have a surface roughness larger than the outer circumference. Preferably, the end surfaces have a surface roughness larger than the outer circumference.
