ABSTRACT:
A xerographic printer or copier includes a replaceable cartridge having a cleaning blade and carrier particle pickoff member associated with a rotating charge receptor. As the cartridge is being used, carrier particles removed from the photoreceptor by the cleaning blade are magnetically retained on the pickoff member, where the remain for the balance of the lifetime of the cartridge. When a useable lifetime of the cartridge is spent, the carrier particles are removed from the pickoff blade.
