<p>PURPOSE:To prevent spattering of toner effectively by placing a toner spattering preventing body at the first position when a latent image carrier is attached and placing the toner spattering preventing body at the second position when the latent image carrier is not attached. CONSTITUTION:When a photosensitive cassette 14 is not attached, a holding member 118 is moved to a position PB. When the photosensitive cassette 14 is attached, the holding member and a flexible member 122 moves according to movement of the cassette, and open part between a casing 102 and the photosensitive body 14 is covered by the flexible member 122 and developing of latent image of the photosensitive body becomes possible. At this time, a part of toner tends to spatter. However, spattering is prevented by the holding member 118 or the toner spattering preventing member 122, and the toner falls under the casing 102. Effect of preventing spattering of the toner 106 becomes larger when the tip of the flexible member 122 is brought nearer to the photosensitive body 16.</p> |
