An ink bottle comprises a container main body configured to contain ink that is to be supplied to an ink tank, an ink outlet forming portion provided on an end of the container main body and configured to include an ink outlet that causes the ink to be flowed out from the container main body, and a valve provided in the ink outlet forming portion and configured to seal the ink outlet in an openable and closable manner. The ink outlet is formed in an end face of the ink outlet forming portion. The end face is arranged to face an opposite side of the ink outlet forming portion that is opposite to a container main body side thereof. A first recess is formed in an outer side portion of the ink outlet on the end face to be recessed toward the container main body side.

A recording apparatus including a recording unit that performs recording by discharging a liquid on a medium transported in a transport direction, a liquid storage portion that is disposed on an apparatus front side in an apparatus depth direction and that includes a liquid container that contains the liquid discharged from the recording unit, and a maintenance unit that performs maintenance on the recording unit. In the recording apparatus, the maintenance unit is provided in an end portion area on a first direction side in a width direction, the width direction being a direction intersecting the depth direction, and the liquid storage portion is provided in an end portion area on a second direction side, the second direction side being a side opposite the first direction side in the width direction, the liquid storage portion extending in the depth direction to an occupying area of the maintenance unit.

An object is to provide a liquid ejecting apparatus that enables a liquid storage container to be properly and easily refilled with a liquid from a liquid refilling container without causing color mixture in the liquid storage container. The liquid ejecting apparatus includes liquid storage containers each configured to feed the liquid to a liquid ejecting portion and liquid refilling containers each configured to refill the liquid storage container with the liquid. A first fitting unit is provided around a liquid injection port in each of the liquid storage containers. A second fitting unit is provided around a liquid pour-out port in each of the liquid refilling containers. The second fitting unit is fitted to the first fitting unit to enable the liquid to be delivered from the liquid pour-out port to the liquid injection port.

A tank includes: a wall separating a liquid storage chamber, which stores a liquid to be supplied to a liquid consuming part, from an outside; an inlet penetrating the wall; and a liquid outflow part which allows the liquid to flow to the outside of the liquid storage chamber. The wall includes a view wall, which extends upward and downward and allows a user to visually check a liquid level in the liquid storage chamber, and a bottom wall, which defines an inner bottom surface of the liquid storage chamber by being connected to the view wall. The inner bottom surface of the bottom wall includes an inclined part which extends from at least a part of the view wall to incline downward in a direction away from the view wall.

In one example, a printing fluid delivery system for a printer is described. The printing fluid delivery system includes a plurality of interconnected printing fluid supply modules forming a page-wide printing fluid manifold to supply printing fluid from one or more cartridges to one or more printheads along a print bar in a printer.

A recording apparatus including a recording unit that performs recording by discharging a liquid on a medium transported in a transport direction, a liquid storage portion that is disposed on an apparatus front side in an apparatus depth direction and that includes a liquid container that contains the liquid discharged from the recording unit, and a maintenance unit that performs maintenance on the recording unit. In the recording apparatus, the maintenance unit is provided in an end portion area on a first direction side in a width direction, the width direction being a direction intersecting the depth direction, and the liquid storage portion is provided in an end portion area on a second direction side, the second direction side being a side opposite the first direction side in the width direction, the liquid storage portion extending in the depth direction to an occupying area of the maintenance unit.

A system comprises: an obtaining unit that obtains predetermined information relating to amount of printing materials for a tank attached to a printing apparatus; and a determining unit that determines an interchangeable tank to be provided from a plurality of types of interchangeable tanks based on the predetermined information, wherein the plurality of types of interchangeable tanks include a first tank and a second tank, the first tank contains printing materials of at least two colors, with a ratio of amounts of the printing materials of the at least two colors being a first constituent ratio, and the second tank contains printing materials of at least the same two colors as those in the first tank, with a ratio of amounts of the printing materials of at least the two colors being a second constituent ratio different from the first constituent ratio.

There are included a packing material that has a moisture-proof property and forms a third space, a liquid ejecting head that includes a case member which forms a second space communicating with the third space, and a first moisture absorbing material and a piezoelectric element which are disposed in the second space, and is disposed in the third space, and a second moisture absorbing material that has a higher moisture absorbing property than that of the first moisture absorbing material and is disposed in the third space.

An ink refill container includes a container main body including an ink storage chamber, an ink outlet-forming portion provided on an end portion of the container main body forming an ink outlet that allows the ink to flow out from the ink storage chamber, and a valve provided in the ink outlet-forming portion configured to openably seal the ink outlet, in which the ink outlet-forming portion includes a positioning portion on an outer side of the ink outlet-forming portion. in which the positioning portion is closer to the container main body than the valve is to the container main body in a central axis direction of the ink outlet, and in which the positioning portion partially abuts against an ink tank when the valve is opened for refilling the ink to the ink tank, to thereby position the valve relative to the ink tank.
