A toner container (11) is rotatably mounted to a toner replenishing device for discharging toner thereto upon rotation of the toner container. The toner container (11) includes a cylindrical member (12) for containing toner to be discharged. A cap member (13) covers the mouth portion (16) of the cylindrical container (11) and is rotationally mounted thereon. A shutter (18) selectively closes an opening (17) of the cap member (13). When the toner container (11) is mounted to the toner replenishing device and rotationally driven thereby, the cap member (13) is prevented from rotation and the shutter (18) is opened to permit discharge of toner. <IMAGE> |
