An image forming apparatus to which a cartridge having a photosensitive drum is detachably mounted. A cartridge supporting member supports the cartridge mounted to a main body of the apparatus, and an operation member is operated to be moved when the cartridge is mounted. When the operation member is moved in a state in which the cartridge is mounted, the cartridge supporting member is rotated away from the transfer member so that the cartridge is rotated and inclined at an angleθ1 with respect to the transfer member, and an exposure device is rotated away from the transfer member and is inclined at an angleθ2 greater than the angleθ1 with respect to the transfer member, so that the cartridge is allowed to be detachable from the main body of the apparatus. |
