The drive motor generates a drive force by which the toner conveyance part conveys the toner. The control part generates a control signal for controlling the drive motor, based on information showing a rotational speed of the drive motor. The control part executes a determination processing for determining whether a driving of the drive motor is stopped, based on the control signal.
