Abstract
Disclosed is a developer discharging device for an image forming apparatus, which is installed in a developing unit configured to transfer and discharge a developer collected from a drum unit or a newly introduced developer, such that the developer is discharged to a developer collecting unit, including a first discharging part configured to extend from an end of a transferring screw installed in the developing unit, and a second discharging part disposed above the first discharging part in parallel with the first discharging part, wherein the developer discharged from the second discharging part falls into the developer collecting unit. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the developer from being sharply discharged, and thus to constantly maintain an amount of the developer.
