A detachable structure for an ink cartridge includes a supply port, a joint section, an insertion rod and an anti-outflow member. The port is provided in the cartridge. The stopper is provided in the port and urged outward to close the port. The joint section is provided in a printer and coupled with the port. The joint section has an ink flow path that communicates with the port while the port is coupled. The insertion rod is provided in the joint section for pushing the stopper inward to communicate the ink flow path with the port while the port is coupled. The anti-outflow member is slidably provided in the joint section. The anti-outflow member is urged outward and slides along the insertion rod when the port is being inserted into the joint section. According to the structure, ink leakage on attaching or detaching of the cartridge can be prevented.
