A cartridge attachment structure includes: a cover whose one end is attached to a pivot shaft for opening and closing a storage space; a support member attached to the pivot shaft and supporting a cartridge; and a pair of lifting-up members attached to the cover such that the cartridge can be sandwiched along the side surface of the cartridge. A groove is formed on each of the opposing inner surfaces of the lifting-up members to receive a projectionformed on the side surface of the cartridge. The groove is curved such that the bottom surface of the cartridge moves away from the support member when the protrusion slides along the groove as the cover rotates about the pivot shaft.

A switching power supply includes an insulated transformer, a full-bridge circuit which converts input DC power into AC power and outputs the AC power to a primary-side coil, an output circuit which converts AC power input from secondary-side coils into DC power and outputs the DC power, and a control circuit which controls the full-bridge circuit by using a phase shift method based on voltage output by the output circuit. When a measured value of the amount of phase shift determined from at least one of the voltage and current output by the output circuit is smaller than a theoretical value of the amount of phase shift corresponding to the switching power supply operating in a continuous current mode, the control circuit prolongs dead time used in the full-bridge circuit in accordance with the difference between the measured value and the theoretical value.
