Abstract
A mounting apparatus for a developer unit adapted to develop an electrostatic latent image recorded on a photoconductive member. A support system is mounted pivotably on a frame and slidably supports the developer unit. The support system pivots from an operative position wherein the developer unit is positioned adjacent the photoconductive member to a non-operative position wherein the developer unit is inclined away from the photoconductive member. In the non-operative position, the developer unit may be slidably removed from the printing machine.
