PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide: a method for packing a photoreceptor, capable of preventing the surface of a photoreceptor from being scratched or deposited when removing a protective sheet and sufficiently protecting the photoreceptor regardless of a size and storage conditions since it is not necessary to require a special device in the shape of the protective sheet and specially control adhesive strength; and a cylindrical electrophotographic photoreceptor packed in such manner.SOLUTION: A protective sheet 2 is fixed to be wound on the outer surface of a cylindrical electrophotographic photoreceptor 1. A wound end portion 2a and wound stop portion 2b of the protective sheet 2 are stuck and fixed by a pressure sensitive adhesive tape 3 having the center served as a non-adhesive portion 3c and both ends served as adhesive portions 3a and 3b. The non-adhesive portion 3c of the pressure sensitive adhesive tape 3 includes fixing release means 3d for releasing the adhesive fixation of the wound end portion 2a and wound stop portion 2b.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8 【課題】保護シートの取り外し時に感光体表面に傷や付着物が付きにくく、また、保護シートの形状に特段の工夫が必要なく、また接着力を特別に管理する必要もないため、サイズや保管条件によらず、感光体を十分に保護することができる感光体の梱包方法や、そのように梱包された円筒状電子写真用感光体を提供する。【解決手段】円筒状電子写真用感光体１の外表面には、保護シート２が巻き付けられた状態で固定される。保護シート２の巻端部２ａと巻止部２ｂは、中央が非粘着部３ｃとなっており両端が粘着部３ａ、３ｂとなっている粘着テープ３により粘着固定されている。粘着テープ３の非粘着部３ｃは、巻端部２ａと巻止部２ｂの粘着固定を解除するための固定解除手段３ｄを備えている。【選択図】図８
