Abstract
A developer supplying device includes a supply driving portion supplying a developer from a developer supplying container to a developer accommodating portion, where it is agitated by an agitating conveyance portion. An agitating driving portion drives the agitating conveyance portion, and a control portion controls the supply driving portion and the agitating driving portion such that, each time the agitating conveyance portion is driven by a first driving amount, the supply driving portion is driven by a second driving amount. The control portion sets a different value of the first driving amount in accordance with a supplying property in a case where the developer is supplied from the developer supplying container to the developer accommodating portion.
