A paddle assembly for a shake-free toner cartridge comprises a toner paddle having a plurality of scrapers. When installed in a toner cartridge, a main scraper scrapes toner adhering to interior surfaces and directs toner from a first region of the toner reservoir into the opening in a first portion of the front of the housing. A secondary scraper positioned adjacent with the main scraper scrapes and directs toner from a second region of the toner reservoir into the first region. A side scraper scrapes toner adhering to interior surfaces of respective side walls of the housing.

A toner paddle for a toner vessel containing toner according to one example embodiment includes a drive shaft defining an axis of rotation for the paddle. The paddle also includes a first set of radially aligned breaker bars, a second set of radially aligned breaker bars radially offset from the first set of breaker bars by about 90 degrees, and a third set of radially aligned breaker bars radially offset from the second set of breaker bars by about 180 degrees. Each of the sets of breaker bars includes a plurality of radially extending breaker bars axially spaced along the drive shaft. The rotation of the drive shaft results in the rotation of the sets of breaker bars into, through, and out of engagement with the toner within the vessel.
