Electrophotographic device

Rotating speed of a photosensitive body is reduced, when rotating the same for preventing deterioration due to ozone. In that an electrophotographic device which comprises the photosensitive body; a charger which uniformly charges the surface of the photosensitive body; and a motor control unit which performs drive control for a motor which causes to rotate and stop the photosensitive body, wherein the motor control unit includes a plurality of speed levels of a speed level for rotating the photosensitive body during printing and another speed level for rotating the photosensitive body which is reduced lower than the speed during the printing, and is provided with a speed change-over means which changes over the plurality of speed levels depending on the operating condition thereof. Thereby, a deterioration of the photosensitive body due to ozone generated from the changer is prevented and another deterioration of the photosensitive body due to rotation thereof when rotating the same other than printing operation is also prevented.
