Abstract
A controlling unit causes a valve and a pump to perform the following operations: (i) the controlling unit closes the valve and drives the pump in initial filling of an inkjet head with ink; (ii) the controlling unit stops the pump and opens the valve on or after a time point when a tip of ink within an ink route reaches a prescribed position, which is higher than that of the ink cartridge and on an inkjet head side viewed from a joining joint part; (iii) the controlling unit closes the valve after the ink within the ink route flows backward to move air in a direct route into the ink cartridge; and (iv) the controlling unit drives the pump to fill the inkjet head with ink.
