Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a main body, endless belt, photosensitive drums, setting unit, contacting/separating mechanism, transmitting mechanism, and coupling members. The photosensitive drums are disposed in confrontation with the endless belt and are arranged in a first direction. Each photosensitive drum has an axis extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The setting unit sets the image forming apparatus to a monochrome mode or color mode. The contacting/separating mechanism controls at least one photosensitive drum to contact or separate from the endless in accordance with the set mode. The transmitting mechanism selectively transmits drive power to photosensitive drums. Each coupling member is selectively coupled to the corresponding photosensitive drum and has a coupling axis extending in the second direction. Each coupling member is uncoupled from the corresponding photosensitive drum when the contacting/separating mechanism controls the corresponding photosensitive drum to separate from the endless belt.

Claim (Index 1):
An image forming apparatus comprising:\n a main casing; a process frame configured to move relative to the main casing between a first position and a second position, the process frame being in the main casing in a case where the process frame is in the first position, and the process frame being out of the main casing in a case where the process frame is in the second position, and the process frame including:\n a first photosensitive drum supported by and movable with the process frame in a case where the process frame moves relative to the main casing between the first position and the second position, and the first photosensitive drum being detachable from the process frame; and \n a second photosensitive drum supported by and movable with the process frame in a case where the process frame moves relative to the main casing between the first position and the second position, and the second photosensitive drum being non-detachably supported by the process frame at all positions of the process frame relative to the main casing; \n a first toner cartridge configured to accommodate toner therein, the first toner cartridge being positioned to the first photosensitive drum in a case where the first toner cartridge is attached to the process frame; and a second toner cartridge configured to accommodate toner therein, the second toner cartridge being positioned to the second photosensitive drum in a case where the second toner cartridge is attached to the process frame.
