A drawer unit moves in a moving direction between an internal position inside a main housing and an external position outside the main housing. The drawer unit includes: a drawer frame configured such that a drum cartridge and a developing cartridge are mounted thereon; and an exposure head that exposes a photosensitive drum. In a state where the drawer frame is located at the external position and where the drum cartridge is mounted on the drawer frame, the drum cartridge rotatably moves between: a first position at which the exposure head is located at a particular position relative to the photosensitive drum and the drum cartridge is prevented from being removed from the drawer frame; and a second position at which the exposure head is deviated from the particular position relative to the photosensitive drum and the drum cartridge is allowed to be removed from the drawer frame.
