PURPOSE: A waste toner resupply system is provided to automatically supply waste toner collected from an electrophotographic apparatus to a developer. CONSTITUTION: An electrophotographic apparatus includes a developer housing(10), a photosensitive drum(20) for forming images, a charging roller(30) for charging the photosensitive drum, and a developing roller(40) for supplying toner to the photosensitive drum. A waste toner collecting tank(60) is placed at one side of the housing, and the inlet(62) of the tank has a cleaning blade(61) for scraping untransferred toner on the photosensitive drum. The bottom(63) of the tank forms a waste toner flow path, and an outlet(64) is formed at the rear part of the bottom. A paddle(70) for transferring the untransferred toner to the outlet is placed inside the inlet.
