IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
20250334898 · 2025-10-30 ·

An image forming apparatus to which a cartridge is removably attachable includes a storage unit that stores developer supplied from the cartridge, a developing member that forms a developer image by developing an electrostatic latent image on a photosensitive member using the developer stored in the storage unit, a frame that accommodates the cartridge, a moving device that moves a cartridge in a displacement direction from an attachment position toward a displaced position; a controller that controls the moving device, and a reading unit that moves between a closed position at which the reading unit covers the frame and an open position at which the reading unit is opened to expose the frame. When the cartridge is at the displaced position and when the reading unit is at the closed position, a cartridge downstream end is located downstream of a reading-unit downstream end in the displacement direction.

Recording device

A recording device includes a moving portion that is movable in a moving direction intersecting a horizontal direction, and a regulating member that includes a regulating portion and is attachable to and detachable from a contact position where the regulating portion comes into contact with a part of the moving portion, in which the regulating member regulates movement of the moving portion in the moving direction by the regulating portion coming into contact with a part of the moving portion.

An image forming device includes a main body including an image former, a storage that stores a setting related to whether a predetermined load operation of the image former is to be set to a permitted state or a suppressed state, a cover provided at the main body in an openable and closable manner, a cover opening/closing sensor that detects an open/closed state of the cover, and a controller that controls the image former and the cover opening/closing sensor. The controller sets an initial state of the load operation to the permitted state in which the load operation is to be permitted, and when the cover opening/closing sensor detects that the cover is changed from being open to being closed, the controller switches the load operation to the suppressed state.
