Abstract
In an ink supply system, an ink tank is connected with an inlet flow channel that is connected with a connection flow channel that is connected with an upstream flow channel, and the upstream flow channel is connected with an ink head. The ink head and the connection flow channel are connected with each other by a downstream flow channel. An upstream pump and an upstream damper are provided in the upstream flow channel, and a downstream pump and a downstream damper are provided in the downstream flow channel. A controller controls the upstream pump and the downstream pump.
