An apparatus for image formation includes a slider, rotatable members,
elastic members, and a waste toner box. The slider is supported by the
main body of the apparatus and can reciprocate in the outward direction
from the inside of the body to one side of the body and the inward
direction opposite to the outward direction. The rotatable members are
arranged in the outward and inward directions over the slider. Each of
the elastic members biases one of the rotatable members upward relative
to the slider. The rotatable members support the waste toner box, which
has an inlet for connection to the bottom of the outlet. The box inlet is
formed at the end of the waste toner box that is upstream in the outward
direction. The elastic member most upstream of all the elastic members in
the outward direction is the greatest in biasing force of all the elastic
members.
