An ink supply apparatus of a printer includes an ink supply container for containing ink which includes a memory module for recording information about the ink contained in the ink supply container, a plurality of exposed terminals formed at the outer circumferential surface of the ink supply container, and a plurality of internal signal lines for internally connecting the exposed terminals and the memory module. Further, an ink injection portion, at which the ink supply container is installed, is provided at the printer and includes a connection terminal portion electrically connected to the exposed terminals when the ink supply container is installed. When the ink supply container is installed at the ink injection portion, information can be exchanged between the controller and the memory module.
