ABSTRACT:
An electrophotographic copying machine having a photosensitive drum is disclosed. Around the drum there are arranged a corona charger for uniformly charging the drum, an optical system for projecting an image of a document onto the uniformly charged drum to form an electrostatic charge latent image, a magnetic brush developing device for developing the latent image with a two component dry developing agent to form a toner image, a transferring device for transferring the toner image onto a record paper to form a duplicated copy, and a cleaning blade for collecting a residual toner on the drum to form a toner accumulation. When the cleaning blade is separated from the drum, the toner accumulation on the drum is transported toward the developing device as the drum continues to rotate. Just before the toner accumulation arrives at the developing device, the toner accumulation is collected by a toner scraper in the form of a thin plate into a toner hopper. The toner collected in the toner hopper is supplied again into the developing device.
