Abstract

The invention provides an image forming apparatus, which includes: an equipment body having a frame body structure and carrying on image forming action; a paper out face which forms one part of the frame body structure and receives papers discharged after the image forming processing is carried on in the equipment body; a window part which is arranged on the paper out face so as to identify the inner part of the equipment body by visual; and a bracket panel which is attached on the paper out face and can change the statuses between the deployed status of the discharged paper auxiliary supported and the accommodate status contained in the paper out face, wherein, the window part is arranged on the bottom face of one part of hollow concave of the paper out face; the bracket panel is accommodated in the concave when in the accommodate status and a perspective part for ensuring the visual identifying property of the window part is arranged. Therefore, users can ensure a consumable supply component arranged in the body of the image forming apparatus and the mess of the paper out face can be prevented.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to image forming apparatuses such as printers, copiers, facsimile machines, and multifunction machines thereof. Background technique [0002] An image forming apparatus such as a printer is equipped with a developing mechanism for supplying toner to an image carrier, and has a toner container for replenishing the developing mechanism with toner. The toner container has a container body for storing toner, and is generally detachable from the image forming apparatus body so as to be replaced according to toner consumption. The same applies to ink cartridges in inkjet printers and the like. [0003] In general, an image forming apparatus has a frame structure, and constituent components such as the image carrier, the developing mechanism, and the toner container are housed inside the frame and cannot be seen from the outside (for example, refer to Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-23347 Bulletin). When changing the toner ...
