Abstract: A container for containing printing liquid for supplying to an ink jet head for an ink jet recording apparatus. The container includes first and second chambers, with the first chamber containing negative pressure producing material and having an air vent communicating with ambient air and a supply port for supplying printing liquid to the ink jet head. The second chamber communicates with the first chamber via a communication port and provides a printing liquid reservoir for the first chamber. In an area adjacent a wall extending from the communication port, a capillary force provided by the negative pressure producing material decreases in a direction perpendicular to and towards that wall at least adjacent a part of the communication port which is uppermost when the container is in use.

Abstract: This invention relates to an assembly method, for head units mounting a plurality of head chips for discharging ink onto a frame, in which relative positions among head chips are determined and which the head chips are secured onto the frame so as to maintain the relative positions, to an assembly apparatus for head units based on the method, and further to an ink jet output apparatus incorporating those head units. According to this invention, correction by each image output will not be required because the head unit is able to complete adjustments of shifts of arrival positions of ink at its assembling stage, thereby making the apparatus compact and simple. In addition, correction of positional shifts will not be required when the heads are replaced, so that maintenance of the ink jet output apparatus will be easy.
