PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make small a piping space necessary in the periphery of a relay tank by adding improvements to the constitution of the relay tank in an inkjet printer equipped with the relay tank, and thereby to achieve the miniaturization of the whole inkjet printer. SOLUTION: A resin film with a flexibility is formed in a bag shape and an opening side is sealed by a sealing member 52a, whereby a sub tank 52 is constituted. An introduction pipe part 52c and a supply pipe part 52d are integrally formed with the sealing member 52a. The introduction pipe part 52c and the supply pipe part 52d linked with a supply conduit 51 and a flexible conduit 53 are arranged side by side on one side of the sub tank 52. Thus the piping space necessary in the periphery of the sub tank 52 can be made small, enabling the inkjet printer A to be made compact. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
