PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a generation of creep on completion of the loading of an ink cartridge, even if a spring having a strong energizing force is used to secure a strong discharging force. SOLUTION: The attaching/detaching device 501 of the ink cartridge 211 includes a discharging lever (685) which is energized with the energizing force of an energizing means 560, in the discharging direction by being abutted on the ink cartridge 211, when the ink cartridge 211 is loaded and the ink cartridge 211 is discharged, and an energizing force increase/decrease means 550 for increasing/decreasing the force energized in the rotational direction of the discharging lever (685) by the energizing means 560.
