Abstract:
A developer cartridge includes a casing, a shutter, a first lock mechanism, and a second lock mechanism. The casing accommodates a developing agent therein and is formed with a supply opening. The shutter is movable between a closed position to close the supply opening and an open position to open the supply opening. The first lock mechanism locks the shutter at the closed position and unlocks the shutter to open the supply opening. The second lock mechanism is configured to lock the shutter at the closed position and be incapable of unlocking the shutter to maintain the closed position of the shutter.
