Abstract
An ink supplier includes an ink tank, an ink supply route and an ink feedback route along which ink is circulated between the ink tank and a head, an ink heater that heats the ink in the ink tank, and an external tank storing the ink to be supplied to the ink tank. A controller allows the ink to be replenished from the external tank to the ink tank in a flow rate regulation mode in which a flow rate is regulated in such a manner that the temperature of the ink in the ink tank falls within a predetermined temperature range. A regulation flow rate for ink replenishment in the flow rate regulation mode is calculated on the basis of at least the temperature in the ink tank and an ink storage amount.
