Abstract
A developing device is provided with a clutch to engage or disengage between a sleeve and a driving motor. When the developing device is used for development, spacing rollers on the sleeve are brought in contact with a photoreceptor drum and the speed of the driving motor is reduced to a lower speed, thereafter the clutch is operated to engage the sleeve and the driving motor and the speed of the driving motor is increased to a rated speed.
