ABSTRACT:
A toner cartridge holds toner therein and is attached into an image forming apparatus. The toner cartridge has a mounting construction with a rotary member that is rotated about an axis to a position where the toner is discharged into the image forming apparatus. The mounting construction includes first and second engagement portions. The first engagement portion is formed on the rotary member, extending at an angle with the axis. The second engagement portion is formed on the image forming apparatus. When the toner cartridge is placed in the image forming apparatus, and is rotated in a first direction, the first engagement portion slides on the second engagement portion so that the toner cartridge is displaced in a second direction parallel to the axis.
