The container (2) contains developer including toner and carrier. The stirring and transferring unit (3, 4) is located in the container (2) to mix and stir the toner and the carrier, and circulates the developer in the container (2). The replenishing unit (6) replenishes the container (2) with developer from an opening of the container (2). The discharging mechanism (20) discharges surplus developer out of the container (2), and is located on a rotation shaft (3a, 4a) of the stirring and transferring unit (3, 4). |
