Abstract:
A printer includes a main body including a printing unit for printing an image, a developer cartridge for accommodating a developer to be supplied to the printing unit and removable from the main body, a releasing member provided in the main body and pushing the developer cartridge in a removal direction to move the developer cartridge from a mounting position where the developer cartridge is locked to the main body to a removal position where the developer cartridge is unlocked, and a handle provided on the developer cartridge. The handle moves in conjunction with the movement of the developer cartridge from the mounting position to the removal position of the developer cartridge such that the handle is switched from a first position adjacent to a side of the developer cartridge to a second position protruding from the side of the developer cartridge, so that the handle can be gripped.
