Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To align the ink supply section of an ink supply unit accurately with the ink supply port of an ink tank while positioning only with the ink tank and the ink supply unit. SOLUTION: Ink can be supplied to each ink tank by moving an ink supply unit 48 corresponding to a specified subink tank 30 requiring ink supply among a plurality of subink tanks selectively to a supply position. Since an ink supply head 150 can be moved back/forth and left/right and the angle thereof can be varied freely, a supply pin 138 and an exhaust pin 144 are coupled accurately with an ink supply port and an exhaust port. Ink can thereby be supplied surely without causing leakage, or the like, and positioning can be carried out only with the ink tank and the ink supply unit 48. Consequently, the ink supply device 46 can be designed compactly and the installation space can be reduced. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
