Abstract

The present invention is to provide a multilayer type electrophotographic photoconductor capable of stably obtaining a high image quality image over a long term by restraining the exposure memory and the photo memory, and an image forming apparatus comprising such a multilayer type electrophotographic photoconductor. A multilayer type electrophotographic photoconductor comprising a charge generating layer containing at least a charge generating agent on a base member directly or via an intermediate layer, and a charge transporting layer containing at least a charge transporting agent and a binder resin formed successively, wherein the light absorption degree at a 680 nm wavelength light beam in the photoconductive layer of the multilayer type electrophotographic photoconductor is of a value of 0.8 or less, and the light absorption degree at a 450 nm wavelength light beam is of a value of 1.0 or more, and an image forming apparatus comprising such a multilayer type electrophotographic photoconductor are provided.
