ABSTRACT:
A conductive roller which can form images of consistent quality and does not cause image failures such as formation of blank spots and a method for inspecting the roller. The conductive roller having a metallic core and at least one rubber elastic layer provided on the outer peripheral surface of the core, the rubber elastic layer being formed from a conductive rubber to which conductivity has been imparted by carbon powder, wherein the conductive roller satisfies the relationship represented by formula (1):in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?Zr/Zc≧5 (1),in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?wherein Zr (Ω) represents a resistance component and Zc (Ω) represents a capacitive reactance component, the resistance component Zr (Ω) and the capacitive reactance component Zc (Ω) being calculated respectively from impedance Z (Ω) and phase difference θ, when the impedance Z (Ω) is measured upon application of an AC voltage of 0.2 V at a frequency of 1 Hz to the rubber elastic layer.
