A toner supply device controls at what position a joint receiving section
stops, using a position detection sensor. By doing so, the rotation of a
toner container is stopped at a position where a toner exit is above the
boundary surface of toner. Therefore, in a developer supply device in
which the toner container rotates, at what position the rotation of the
toner container stops is controlled, so that members such a shutter
properly operate and toner supply is stably carried out.
