Abstract
A liquid supplying reservoir enabling preventing overflow of liquid from a supply opening when a cap covering the supply opening is removed is provided. The ink supplying reservoir includes: a reservoir main body which is filled with a liquid, and at which a supply opening, from which the liquid is supplied to the outside, is formed; a cap which is fixed to the reservoir main body so as to cover the supply opening, and which is separated from the reservoir main body when a force of a predetermined value or greater acts thereon; and a flexible closing member, which is accommodated within the cap at a position or an orientation where the supply opening is not closed by the closing member and so as to be separable from the cap, and which is moved to close the supply opening when the cap is separated from the reservoir main body.
