Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a novel imaging member, namely, an electrostatic latent image generating member, and methods for using the same, that can generate an electrostatic latent image through charge acceptance control and, without the need for conventional post-charging photodischarge, eliminating process steps and avoiding limitations in system speed due to the transit time of charge carriers after light exposure.SOLUTION: An exposing device 40 and an electrostatic charging device 35 in an electrostatic imaging device 10 are positioned in reverse order compared to that found in a conventional image-forming apparatus. In such embodiments, a latent image is formed during charging.
