PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize the improvement of maintainability and the reduction of running cost and color position deviation by integrating a plurality of photoreceptors and an exposure device as a cartridge and making a developing device attachable to/detachable from the cartridge. SOLUTION: In the tandem type color image forming device, a color image is formed by providing two or more image forming stations where an electrifying device 42, an exposure device 43, a developing device 44 and a transfer device 45 are arranged around the photoreceptor and making a transfer medium pass through the individual stations. In the device, a plurality of photoreceptors 41 are attached to a photoreceptor cartridge 40 which can be attached to/ detached from a device main body, and the developing means 44 is constituted to be attachable to/detachable from each photoreceptor 41 attached to the cartridge 40, and the exposure device 43 is attached to a position corresponding to each of a plurality of photoreceptors 41. |
