Abstract
A magnetic brush developing device for developing an electrostatic charge image comprises a hopper for containing toners to be supplemented, a toner supplying roller rotatably mounted in a lower opening of the hopper and provided at its periphery with a longitudinal recess for receiving therein a given amount of toners from the hopper and means for limiting a length of the opening, through which toners are supplemented, along an axis of the roller, so as to make the length of the opening smaller than a maximum width of an electrostatic charge image to be developed by the developing device.
