Abstract

Abstract An electrophotographic photoreceptor having on a conductive support an interlayer and a photoconductive photoreceptive layer in that order, with the interlayer containing at least one colloidal substance selected from colloidal silica and colloidal alumina, and an organic solvent soluble resin which is composed of (A) a polymer having an acid value of from 10 to 100 and containing repeating units represented by formula (I) and (II) <IMAGE> (I) wherein R1 represents H or CH3; R2 represents H, -CH3, -C2H5, or a chloromethyl group; and n represents an integer of 1 to 10; <IMAGE> (II) wherein R3 represents H or -CH3; and (B) at least one polymer selected from a homopolymer and a plural copolymer having a glass transition point (Tg) of from -70 DEG to 20 DEG C., which can be utilized as a lithographic printing material having long press life.
