Abstract: An ink replenishment container includes a container main body, an ink outlet forming section, and a valvehaving elasticity. An exterior of the valve is circular in plan view and has two or more slits that extend from a center toward a circumference so as to be joined at the center, two inclined surfaces toward the slit are formed for each of the slits so as to interpose the slit therebetween like a valley when viewed from the ink outlet side, and when a pressure difference positive in a direction from an inside of the ink replenishment container to an outside thereof acts on inner sides of the two inclined surfaces, the slits are closed, and when a pressure difference positive in a direction from the outside of the ink replenishment container to the inside thereof acts on outer sides of the two inclined surfaces, the slits are opened.

Abstract: There is provided an ink replenishment container for replenishing ink into an ink tank via an ink inlet flow path member having a plurality of flow paths, the ink replenishment container including a container main body, an ink outlet forming portion, and an outlet valve unit. The outlet valve unit includes a valve housing mounted to provide a gap with an inner peripheral surface of a tubular portion in the tubular portion, a sealing member, and a valve body movable between a valve close state in contact with the sealing member and a valve open state separated from the sealing member. The valve body has a partition contact portion capable of contacting a partition of the ink inlet flow path member. The valve housing has a through-hole that communicates with the gap, and the through-hole communicates with the ink inlet flow path member in the valve open state.
