Embodiment Construction

[0024] Illustrative embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, first, the basic configuration of a laser printer 1 as an example of an image forming apparatus will be explained, and then the relevant features of the developer cartridge 7 (developer container) will be specifically explained.

[0025] Hereinafter, directions will be indicated from the perspective of a user using the laser printer 1 . Specifically, in figure 1 , the right-hand side in the figure corresponds to the "front" side of the printer, the left-hand side in the figure corresponds to the "rear" side of the printer, the front side in the figure corresponds to the "left" side of the printer, and the rear side in the figure corresponds to the on the "right" side of the printer. Similarly, the direction of the line from top to bottom of the figure corresponds to "vertical" or "up and down" (up / down or top / bottom) of t...

Abstract

An image forming system includes a first developer container, a second developer container having a capacity larger than the first developer container, and an image forming main unit having a structure configured to allow one developer container selected from a group including the first and second developer containers to be removably installed therein. Each of the first and second developer containers includes a housing configured to form a developer storage chamber in which developer is storable, and a developer agitating member. The agitating member of the first developer container has a construction equivalent to that of the second developer container. Lower portions of the housings are equally positioned relative to the corresponding agitating member and have equally shaped inner surfaces, while portions other than the lower portions of the housings are shaped differently from each other.

Description

technical field [0001] An apparatus or system according to one or more aspects of the present invention relates to an image forming system including a developer container configured to store a developer and an image forming unit configured to allow developing The agent container is installed in or removed from it. Background technique [0002] Certain types of image forming apparatuses or systems in the related art are structured to allow a developer container (eg, embodied as a developing cartridge) capable of storing developer to be installed in or removed from a main body. Specifically, for example, the developing cartridge may include a developer container having a cover member and a container body openably closed by the cover member and a stirring member configured to stir the developer in the developer container . In some configurations, rotatably, the capacity of the developer container can be changed by changing a cover member having a different shape to another co...
