Abstract:
A toner container includes a housing and a shutter. The housing includes a toner accommodating chamber. A communication hole is formed in the housing. The communication hole communicates an interior with an exterior of the toner accommodating chamber. The communication hole also includes a replenishment hole, through which toner is supplied to the toner accommodating chamber, and a first collection hole. The shutter is configured to slide between an opening position and a closing position of the communication hole to open/close the communication hole. The shutter moves in a closing direction from the opening position to the closing position to close the replenishment hole and the first collection hole in this order.
