Replaceable unit for an electrophotographic image forming device having a latching mechanism

摘要

A replaceable unit for an electrophotographic image forming device according to one example embodiment includes an elongated body extending along a lengthwise dimension and having a reservoir for holding toner. A latch catch on the body is positioned to receive a corresponding latch when the replaceable unit is installed in the image forming device to restrain the body from moving forward along the lengthwise dimension. A latch actuator at a front of the body is movable relative to the body between a home position and a releasing position. A release handle at the front of the body is unobstructed for user engagement and operatively connected to the latch actuator such that actuation of the release handle causes the latch actuator to move from the home position to the releasing position to unlatch the body from the image forming device.
