ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus in which a drum unit or a developing unit can be individually replaced, and the efficiency of an operation of providing the developing unit with developer or of an operation of removing the developer from the developing unit can be improved includes a supplying roller including a magnetic roller and a developing sleeve arranged on an outer circumference of the magnetic roller. A fixing member is attached to an axial portion of the magnetic roller. The supplying roller can be removably attached to a side of a photoconductive drum by the fixing member, and at the same time, a pole position of the magnetic roller relative to the photoconductive drum can be fixed.
