A fluid cartridge, such as a cartridge for supplying ink for to an ink jet printhead, includes a wick chamber having outer walls, an ink outlet passing through one of the outer walls, and a porous wick member located in the wick chamber. Inner surfaces of the outer walls of the wick chamber are formed such that a portion of the wick proximate to the ink outlet is compressed by the inner surfaces to a larger degree than are portions of the wick distant from the ink outlet. The inner surfaces of the outer walls of the wick chamber may be formed such that they converge approaching the ink outlet.
