Abstract:
A developing device includes: a photosensitive body on which an electrostatic latent image is formed; a development chamber; a development roller that faces the photosensitive body and transfers toner to the electrostatic latent image; a supply roller that supplies toner from the development chamber to the development roller; and an agitating member that is disposed under the supply roller in the development chamber and agitates the toner that is in the development chamber.
Abstract:
A cartridge unit to discharge toner via a toner outlet and an electrophotographic image forming apparatus are provided. The cartridge unit includes a shutter unit movable between an opening position in which the toner outlet is opened and a closing position in which the toner outlet is closed in a first direction, and a lever unit movable in a second direction across the first direction, and connected to the shutter unit such that the shutter unit moves in the first direction when the lever unit moves in the second direction.
