A first development chamber accommodates an agitator. A second development chamber accommodates a development roller and a supply roller. The second development chamber is located above the first development chamber. A toner cartridge contains toner to be supplied to the first development chamber. A transfer device is located above a photosensitive drum in a state where a drum unit is attached to a main housing. The transfer device transfers toner on the photosensitive drum to a sheet. An agitator includes a shaft and a blade. The shaft is rotatably supported by a development housing. The blade is rotatable together with the shaft. The blade has a first end fixed to the shaft and a second end located away from the first end. The agitator is configured such that, when rotated, the second end of the blade reaches a height of an opening in the development housing in a vertical direction.
