Abstract: An image forming apparatus is disclosed that includes a substantially flat top face and a slanted front face, the bottom side of which recedes backward. The image forming apparatus may includes a paper discharge tray disposed at a lower portion of the slanted front face, the paper discharge tray protruding forward. The paper discharge tray may be tiltable upward and downward. Because the bottom side of the slanted front face recedes backward, the flat top face can be provided, and simultaneously, enough space for the feeding and discharging of paper can be secured.

Abstract: A notch (recess portion) is proved on a front face of an ink cartridge, and a holding portion is set between a corner portion of the recess portion and a projection portion provided on a cartridge upper face. A cartridge can be held securely by nipping the cartridge between two fingers at both ends thereof (the projection portion and the corner portion) of the holding portion, even if the cartridge is a thin type cartridge, so that attaching/detaching of the cartridge to a printer main unit can be performed easily and securely.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus such as an ink jet printer or a laser beam printer include an ink or toner cartridge loading portion and a display portion to show the remaining amount of the ink or the toner. The ink or toner cartridge loaded in the ink or toner cartridge loading portion and the display portion are viewable together at once.
