    Abstract: An image forming device comprises: an exposer having a plurality of light emitting devices, a light emitting device among the plurality of light emitting devices to transmit light toward a photosensitive drum; and a developer to develop an electrostatic latent image formed on a surface of the photosensitive drum by the light, wherein the light emitting device among the plurality of light emitting devices includes: a light emitting layer to generate the light; and a reflective layer to reflect at least a portion of the generated light. The reflective layer can include a plurality of sub-reflective layers, in which a thickness of a sub-reflective layer among the plurality of sub-reflective layers is different from a thickness of another sub-reflective layer among the plurality of sub-reflective layers, and/or a refractive index of a sub-reflective layer among the plurality of sub-reflective layers is different from a refractive index of another sub-reflective layer among the plurality of sub-reflective layers.

    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a developing device including a photosensitive unit having a photoreceptor and a developing unit having a developing roller; a light scanning unit including a light source to generate light to form an electrostatic latent image on the photoreceptor and a window through which the light is transmitted; a shutter unit to open and close the window; a plurality of pressing units to press the developing unit to cause the developing roller separated from the photoreceptor to contact the photoreceptor and cause the shutter unit to open and close the window; and an operating unit connected to the plurality of pressing units. The operating unit is movable between an operating position to generate a pressing force by the plurality of pressing units to press the developing unit and the shutter unit and a standby position to release the pressing force.
