Abstract
Reduced can be interferential streaks produced in a halftone image when using a photoreceptor support (also called a drawn tube) having been subjected to tool bit cutting processing, and provided can be an electrophotographic photoreceptor capable of obtaining high quality in response to the light printing field or the like and an image forming method employing the electrophotographic photoreceptor. Also disclosed is an electrophotographic photoreceptor possessing a cylindrical support and provided thereon, a photosensitive layer, the cylindrical support possessing a processing profile regularly formed along a central axis, provided on a circumferential surface of the cylindrical support, wherein the processing profile satisfies Formula 1: Formula 1 ΔL≧10 μm, where ΔL, represents a difference between a processing period width and another processing period width in a central axis direction of the cylindrical support in an image region.
