Development station for a reproduction apparatus

A magnetic brush development station including a housing forming, at least in part, a reservoir for developer material. A plurality of augers are located in the housing for mixing developer material within the reservoirs. A development roller is mounted within the housing for delivering developer material from the reservoir to a development zone. A mechanism is provided for selectively readily replenishing and/or emptying at least one component of developer material with respect to the reservoir, the replenishing mechanism including a tube defining a series of ports, the series of ports being at a specific angle and of a size so as to allow an equal amount of material to pass through each of the ports, whereby marking particles exit from the ports and are substantially uniformly introduced into the reservoir of the housing.
