Abstract
A method for sealing an opening formed in a cover film welded to a fluid retainer at a position corresponding to a covered area of an ink inlet hole. A sealing member, which seals the opening, is a laminated film including a first film and a second film. The method includes preparing the laminated film, placing the laminated film on the fluid container with the first film facing the fluid container in such a manner that the laminated film covers the opening, and sealing the opening with the laminated film by heating the sealing member covering the opening from the side corresponding to the second film to melt the first film.
