PURPOSE:To surely recover toner by a simple structure by constituting a toner recovery means for recovering toner scraped from a blade of a specific case member, a magnetic roll and a toner discharging member. CONSTITUTION:Magnetic toner 2 scraped from the surface of a photosensitive drum 1 by the edge of the blade 4 is attached to the surface of a collecting part 6a by the magnetic suction force of the magnetic roll 7 and moved to a stock part 6b by the rotation of the roll 7. When the toner 2 goes out from a range affected by the magnetic attraction force of the roll 7, the toner 2 is dropped by gravity, stacked on the bottom of the stock part 6b and discharged to the outside of the device. Thus, the toner 2 removed by the comparatively simple structure can be surely recovered. |
