ABSTRACT:
A developing roller for use in an image forming apparatus using an electrophotographic process. The image forming apparatus includes a photosensitive drum having a transcribing roller cleaning device; the developing roller disposed between a transcribing device and an exposing device adjacent to the photosensitive drum, for frictionally charging toner at a place where the developing roller contacts with a supply roller and transferring the charged toner to a developing region so as to attach the charged toner to a latent image formed on the photosensitive drum; a regulating blade disposed between the developing region and the supply roller, for regulating a toner layer on the developing layer into a thin toner layer, being in contact with the developing roller; the supply roller in contact with the developing roller, for frictionally charging the toner transferred into a contact nip by a relative motion therebetween; and an agitator for transferring the toner in a toner cartridge to the supply roller. The developing roller includes a body corresponding to a image region; end parts corresponding to a non-image region; a shaft for transferring a driving force and maintaining strength of the developing roller; and a joint where the body and the end parts are joined.
