FIELD: physics.
SUBSTANCE: image forming apparatus has developing units which are designed in such a way that they have a corresponding container for storing developer based on consumption of the developer, and ensure easy usage. The image forming apparatus also includes an image carrier and a set of developing units lying along the direction of rotation of the image carrier in order to feed the developer to the image carrier. The set of developing units includes a first developing unit, having the biggest container for storing the developer, and a second developing unit, having the second biggest container for storing the developer after the first developing unit.
EFFECT: prevention of drop in printing speed and contamination of developing units or the light window of the light scanning device with residual developer.
