Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a development cartridge having a developing roller. The developing roller includes a roller body, and a shaft to pass through a central axis of the roller body. A coupling structure is disposed at an end part of the shaft, is movable from a first position to a second position, and includes a first coupling piece and a second coupling piece. Positions of the first coupling piece and the second coupling piece are maintained with respect to one another by a static frictional force between surfaces of the first coupling piece and the second coupling piece to hold the coupling structure in the first position. When a predetermined force overcomes the static frictional force, the first coupling piece and the second coupling piece disengage from one another to allow the coupling structure to move from the first position to the second position.

Abstract: A device is to supply printing material to a printing material container in a printing apparatus. The device includes a first container to contain printing material, a first piston movable in the first container to exert first pressure to discharge the printing material contained in the first container from the first container, a second container having an opening to the first container, and a second piston movable in the second container to exert second pressure higher than the first pressure to form a pressure gradient based on the first pressure and the second pressure through the opening. The pressure gradient is to disperse the printing material in the first container.

Abstract: An example method comprises identifying a plurality of supply levels corresponding to a plurality of print supplies of a print device, and adjusting a color for a region of a print job for the print device based on the plurality of supply levels. The method further comprises initiating execution of the print job using the adjusted color for the region.

Abstract: A print material container comprising a body, a transfer mechanism, an inner connector, and an outer connecter. The transfer mechanism is to move print material in or out of the body.

The device (100) may include a dispensing-side gasket material (132) slide-able through the printing substance transfer aperture (122) when moving the printing substance dispensing nozzle (110) between the first position and the second position.

Abstract: A cartridge couplable to a printing apparatus may include a driver coupler movable in a first direction toward an engaging position to engage with a power driver of the printing apparatus to drive the cartridge and a power transfer member including a power transfer part to transfer power moving the driver coupler in the first direction toward the engaging position, as the power transfer part moves in a second direction different from the first direction.

Abstract: In various examples, biased print gaskets can include a non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions executable by a processing resource to charge a material included in a gasket with a first bias voltage to repel print particles from a surface of the gasket, cease charging the material with the first bias voltage and charge the material with a second bias to attract print particles to a surface of the gasket.

Abstract: A device to supply printing material to a printing material container of a printing apparatus includes a container including a plunger and to contain the printing material, a portal couplable to a refill port to the printing material container. The portal includes a discharge port through which the printing material is transferrable from the container, and a connector to receive power to move the plunger, to cause a transfer of the printing material contained in the container to the printing material container through the discharge port.

Abstract: In an example, a print component includes a guide structure. The example guide structure includes a recess to receive a print material container and a guideway with a guide wall to support rotation of the print material container. Upon rotation of the print material container, an electrical contact of the print material container moves towards an electrical contact coupled to the guide structure of the print component. In another example, a container includes a housing, a material transfer interface, and a mechanical interface. In that example, the mechanical interface includes a guide structure that defines a protrusion and a guideway to allow the container to rotate within a recess defined by a receptacle shell. Upon rotation of the container, an electrical contact coupled to the guide structure moves towards an electrical contact on the receptacle shell.
