Abstract: Provided is an electrophotographic apparatus including: an electrophotographic photosensitive member; a voltage application unit configured to cause discharge from an electroconductive member to the electrophotographic photosensitive member; a charge transfer amount detection unit configured to detect a charge transfer amount per unit time resulting from the discharge from the electroconductive member to the electrophotographic photosensitive member; and a charging potential control unit, wherein V1 and V2 defined by specific procedures for the electrophotographic photosensitive member satisfy a relationship represented by the following expression (E-4): 100V1<V2?V1 (E-4), and wherein the charging potential control unit is configured to control the charging potential of the electrophotographic photosensitive member at the time of image formation.

Abstract: This invention relates to derivatives of 3-methylflavone-8-carboxylic acid represented by the formula (1) ##STR1## wherein R represents a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group or a group ##STR2## (wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 represent a lower alkyl group or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, when taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, may form a heterocyclic ring with or without an intervening hetero atom, and n is an integer of 1 to 4), and X represents a halogen atom, which are useful as intermediates.This invention also relates to processes for preparing the same.

Abstract: Disclosed is a raster scanning type CRT display apparatus having a microprogrammed processor for primarily controlling the input and output of data to and from an external information source. This CRT display apparatus comprises a plurality of cursor controlling registers having their contents set by the processor. The contents of these registers define the configuration of a cursor for displaying a data entry position on its screen, the decision with respect to the blinking of the cursor, and a period of the blinking.
