Zusammenfassung:	To provide an image forming apparatus that can prevent leakage of toner.SOLUTION: An image forming apparatus comprises: a toner bottle that stores toner; a drive motor that rotates the toner bottle; a sensor for detecting the position of an opening of the toner bottle; and a control unit that controls the rotation of the drive motor. The control unit controls a position to stop the opening of the toner bottle by changing the timing to stop the rotation of the toner bottle.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】トナーの漏れを抑制することが可能な画像形成装置を提供する。【解決手段】トナーを収容するトナーボトルと、トナーボトルを回転させる駆動モーターと、トナーボトルの開口部の位置を検出するためのセンサーと、駆動モーターの回転を制御する制御部とを備える。そして、制御部は、トナーボトルの回転停止のタイミングを変えて、トナーボトルの開口部を停止させる位置を制御する。【選択図】図１
