The invention claimed is: 1. A toner bottle, comprising: a main body including a guide used to guide toner; an opening of the bottle; a gear proximate to the opening, the gear oriented to rotate the toner bottle around an axis of rotation; and an intermediate area located between the main body and the opening, the intermediate area including a guide, an angle of the guide of the main body relative to the axis of rotation being larger than an angle of the guide of the intermediate area, both the angle of the guide of the main body and the angle of the guide of the intermediate area being acute angles, wherein the gear is disposed between the opening and the main body, and wherein the gear is disposed between the opening and the intermediate area. 2. A toner bottle according to claim 1, wherein: the intermediate area includes two toner guides. 3. A toner bottle according to claim 2, wherein: the two toner guides of the intermediate area each have an angle relative to the axis of rotation which is smaller than the angle of the guide of the main body. 4. A toner bottle according to claim 1, wherein: the gear is integrally molded with the toner bottle. 5. A toner bottle according to claim 1, wherein: the intermediate area includes at least one raised portion. 6. A toner bottle according to claim 1, wherein: the intermediate area includes two raised portions. 7. A toner bottle according to claim 1, wherein: the intermediate area includes sloping shoulders. 8. A toner bottle according to claim 1, further comprising: a cap portion having a toner outlet, the cap portion being rotatable with respect to the main body and covering the opening of the bottle. 9. A toner bottle, comprising: a main body including means for guiding toner when the main body rotates; an opening of the bottle; and a gear proximate to the opening, the gear oriented to rotate the toner bottle around an axis of rotation; and an intermediate area located between the main body and the opening, the intermediate area including a means for guiding the toner when the intermediate area rotates, an angle of the means for guiding of the main body relative to the axis of rotation being larger than an angle of the means for guiding of the intermediate area, both the angle of the means for guiding toner of the main body and the angle of the means for guiding toner of the intermediate area being acute angles, wherein the gear is disposed between the opening and the main body, and wherein the gear is disposed between the opening and the intermediate area. 10. A toner bottle according to claim 9, wherein: the intermediate area includes two means for guiding. 11. A toner bottle according to claim 10, wherein: the two means for guiding of the intermediate area each have an angle relative to the axis of rotation which is smaller than the angle of the means for guiding of the main body. 12. A toner bottle according to claim 9, wherein: the gear is integrally molded with the toner bottle. 13. A toner bottle according to claim 9, wherein: the intermediate area includes at least one raised portion. 14. A toner bottle according to claim 9, wherein: the intermediate area includes two raised portions. 15. A toner bottle according to claim 9, wherein: the intermediate area includes sloping shoulders. 16. A toner bottle according to claim 9, further comprising: a cap portion having a toner outlet, the cap portion being rotatable with respect to the main body and covering the opening of the bottle. 17. A toner bottle, comprising: a main body including a guide used to guide toner; an opening of the bottle; a gear proximate to the opening, the gear oriented to rotate the toner bottle around an axis of rotation; and an intermediate area located between the main body and the opening, the intermediate area including a guide, an angle of the guide of the main body relative to the axis of rotation being larger than an angle of the guide of the intermediate area, wherein: the gear is disposed between the opening and the main body, and the gear is disposed between the opening and the intermediate area. 18. A toner bottle according to claim 17, further comprising: a cap portion having a toner outlet, the cap portion being rotatable with respect to the main body and covering the opening of the bottle. 19. A toner bottle, comprising: a main body including means for guiding toner when the main body rotates; an opening of the bottle; and a gear proximate to the opening, the gear oriented to rotate the toner bottle around an axis of rotation; and an intermediate area located between the main body and the opening, the intermediate area including a means for guiding the toner when the intermediate area rotates, an angle of the means for guiding of the main body relative to the axis of rotation being larger than an angle of the means for guiding of the intermediate area, wherein: the gear is disposed between the opening and the main body, and the gear is disposed between the opening and the intermediate area. 20. A toner bottle according to claim 19, further comprising: a cap portion having a toner outlet, the cap portion being rotatable with respect to the main body and covering the opening of the bottle.
