Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image forming apparatus body, a first driving mechanism, a first drive unit, an image carrier, a developing device, and a biasing member. The first drive unit includes an input unit to which a rotary drive power is transmitted from the first driving mechanism. The developing device is removably attachable to the image forming apparatus body. The biasing member biases the developing device toward the image carrier side. The developing device includes a developing roller supplying toner onto the image carrier, and a developing unit housing and supporting the developing roller. The first drive unit is located at one end portion in an axial direction of the developing roller. The developing unit swings to come close to the image carrier by the biasing member biasing the developing unit. The developing unit is swingable with respect to the first drive unit.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes scanning targets, an optical scanning section, a cassette, a cassette insertion section, and a cassette guide. The optical scanning section scans the scanning targets with light. The cassette guide is disposed in the cassette insertion section and guides the cassette. The optical scanning section includes a plurality of reflecting members corresponding one-to-one with the scanning targets. Each reflecting member directs the light to a corresponding one of the scanning targets. The cassette guide includes one or more adjustment mechanisms that are equal in number to a prescribed number of reflecting members out of the plurality of reflecting members. The prescribed number of adjustment mechanisms correspond one-to-one with the prescribed number of reflecting members. Each adjustment mechanism adjusts a position of a corresponding one of the reflecting members.

Abstract: A cleaning device is provided in an image forming apparatus, and cleans an object to be cleaned. The cleaning device includes a cleaning member, a cleaning mechanism, a motor, a cleaning control portion, and a driving change portion. The cleaning member slides along the object to be cleaned. The cleaning mechanism causes the cleaning member to slide along the object to be cleaned. The motor drives the cleaning mechanism. The cleaning control portion drives the motor with a predetermined driving voltage being applied to the motor, and stops the driving of the motor after a predetermined driving time has elapsed. The driving change portion is able to change one or both of the driving time and the driving voltage.
