A process cartridge, an image forming apparatus having the cartridge, and a method for mounting and dismounting the process cartridge in and from an image forming apparatus body are provided. The process cartridge of an image forming apparatus includes at least one of a photosensitive body on which an electrostatic latent image is formed, and a developing member for developing the electrostatic latent image, and a housing receiving and supporting at least one of the photosensitive body and the developing member. The housing includes first and second guide protrusions protruding outwardly from a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface of the housing in order to position a mounting position of the housing as the process cartridge is mounted in the image forming apparatus body, and a mount and dismount supporting part formed on a third surface, perpendicular to the first and the second surfaces, of the housing in order to support a rotation of the housing as the process cartridge is mounted in or dismounted from the image forming apparatus body.
