    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes image forming units, a toner supply device, a common-unit detection device, an initial operation execution device, and a determination device. Each image forming unit is detachably provided in the image forming apparatus, and includes at least a development device containing toner. At least two of the image forming units are common image forming units having a common structure. When the common-unit detection device detects a common image forming unit at installation thereof, the initial operation execution device supplies a predetermined amount of toner to a development device of the common image forming unit and mixes to charge the toner by friction for a predetermined time period. Then, the. determination device detects whether the toner in the development device is charged to a predetermined level, and determines, based on the detection, whether to mix the toner one more time for another predetermined time.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus is disclosed. The image forming apparatus includes a body having an opening perforated in one side thereof, a developing unit detachably mounted to the body through the opening, a body cover configured to cover a rear portion of the developing unit in a mounting direction of the developing unit and adapted to open or close the opening, and a memory unit provided at the rear portion of the developing unit and having a developing device terminal. The body cover includes a body terminal to come into contact with the memory unit. Accordingly, an electrical connection between the developing unit and the body can be made less susceptible to vibration, etc. caused during operation of a drive motor.

    摘要: A toner cartridge comprises toner and electrical development components which consume a portion of the toner by printing a plurality of images. An electronic circuit stores an indication of the amount of toner remaining, and a value controlling a voltage applied to at least one of the electrical development components. The electronic circuit determines when a predetermined amount of the toner remains in the toner cartridge. When the predetermined amount of toner remains in the toner cartridge, the electronic circuit alters the amount of toner consumed to form images by changing a voltage level applied to at least one of the electrical development components. The electronic circuit alters the amount of toner consumed by replacing the stored value controlling the voltage applied to at least one of the electrical development components with a new value controlling the voltage applied to at least one of the electrical development components.
