PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cartridge which enables easy attachment and enables a liquid stored therein to be agitated.SOLUTION: A cartridge 1 is attached to an ink jet printer 2 and supplies a pigmented ink. The cartridge 1 includes: an ink pack 9; a first airbag 10; and a case 5 for storing the ink pack 9 and the first airbag 10. The case 5 includes: an ink supply port 12; the first airbag air flow port 13; and a case air flow port 15 on a front surface 5a when viewed in an attachment direction. If compressed air is introduced into the first airbag 10 through the first airbag air flow port 13, the air expands the first airbag 10 and causes the first airbag 10 to press the ink pack 9 and agitate the ink I therein. Further, since the ink supply port 12, the first airbag air flow port 13, and the case air flow port 15 are located on the front surface of the cartridge 1, the cartridge 1 is easily attached to the ink jet printer 2.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 |
