1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
an apparatus main body; and a developing cartridge removable mounted in the apparatus main body, wherein the developing cartridge comprises: a main unit, wherein the main unit includes a developer bearing member for forming a toner image, and a toner storage unit removably mounted in the main unit and being held in the main unit during forming of an image, wherein the toner storage unit is configured to supply a developer to the developer bearing member, wherein the apparatus main body comprises: a guide portion configured to guide a guided portion of the developing cartridge so that the developing cartridge can move between a mounting position and a replacement position, wherein the mounting position is a position in which the developing cartridge forms an image, and wherein the replacement position is a position downstream of the mounting position in a direction the developing cartridge is removed and at which position the toner storage unit can be removed from the main unit, wherein when the developing cartridge is inserted along the guide portion a predetermined amount, the guide portion changes in shape from the direction with a falling gradient to a direction similar to the mounting direction for mounting the developing cartridge in the apparatus main body completely, wherein the developing cartridge can be removed from the apparatus main body via an opening provided on the apparatus main body, and wherein, in a state in which the guided portion is supported by the guide portion in the replacement position, the toner storage unit can be removed from the developing cartridge in a direction the toner storage unit is removed, which is different from the direction the developing cartridge is removed, wherein the toner storage unit can be removed from the apparatus main body via the opening. |
