Abstract
The toner cartridge includes a coupling plate provided with a first support section that supports the axis of a photosensitive drum and a seconds support section that supports the axis of the magnet roller. The toner cartridge mounts this coupling plate so that the first support section supports the axis of the photosensitive drum provided in a first part of the toner cartridge and the second support section supports the axis of the magnet roller provided in the second part of the toner cartridge, thus maintaining a predetermined distance between the axis of the photosensitive drum and the axis of the magnet roller.
