The ink cartridge stores ink, and has a liquid fuel storage section that stores the liquid fuel, and a water storage section that stores water. The printer has: the fuel cell having a fuel electrode, an air electrode, and a solid-electrolyte film, in which the fuel electrode receives the liquid fuel and water is discharged through the air electrode; a fuel supplying path for supplying the liquid fuel stored in the liquid fuel storage section to the fuel electrode; and a water forwarding path for forwarding the water discharged from the air electrode to the water storage section.
