An attachment and detachment structure attaches and detaches a toner container to and from an attachment unit. The toner container includes a container main body, a rotational member and a power transmission body. The rotational member rotates around an axis to agitate the toner contained in the container main body. The power transmission body is provided outside the container main body and rotates around an axis to transmit a rotational force to the rotational member. The attachment unit includes a contact body which comes into contact with the power transmission body on attachment process and detachment process of the toner container to and from the attachment unit and rotates the power transmission body. The power transmission body comes into contact with the contact body on the attachment process of the toner container to the attachment unit, and is rotated around the axis to rotate the rotational member around the axis.
