To provide a system which enables easy connection between a tank and a liquid bottle and enables reduction of the possibility that a liquid flowing from the liquid bottle into the tank flows reversely to a liquid passage.SOLUTION: An ink tank 100 includes: an ink chamber 111; an atmosphere communication hole 113 which allows communication between the ink chamber 111 and atmospheric air; and a pipe body 112 which defines a gas passage 121 and a liquid passage 122. The pipe body 112 extends from an inclined wall 106 to the oblique upward side along an extending direction intersecting with a vertical direction and a horizontal direction at the outside of the ink tank 100. An opening 122A of the liquid passage 122 is located below an opening 121A of the gas passage 121.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6 【課題】タンクと液体ボトルとの接続が容易であり、液体ボトルからタンクへ流入した液体が液体流路へ逆流する可能性を低くすることができるシステムを提供する。【解決手段】インクタンク１００は、インク室１１１と、インク室１１１を大気に連通させる大気連通孔１１３と、気体流路１２１及び液体流路１２２を区画する管体１１２と、を備える。管体１１２は、インクタンク１００の外部において、鉛直方向及び水平方向と交差する延出方向に沿って傾斜壁１０６から斜め上向きに延びている。液体流路１２２の開口１２２Ａが気体流路１２１の開口１２１Ａより下方に位置する。【選択図】図６
