Abstract
A liquid consumption device has a tank having an inner space partitioned by an outer wall. The tank has a first inner wall which extends from the outer wall on a one side in a first direction perpendicular to an up-down direction. Further, the first inner wall partitions the inner space into a first space and a second space, which communicate with each other through a first communication hole formed on the first inner wall. A third space, which is partitioned by the first inner wall and the outer wall, and is located below a lowermost position of a surface defining the first communication hole when the tank takes a first attitude is configured to store a particular amount of liquid, which is stored in a fourth space in a state where the tank takes the usage attitude, the fourth space being a part of the second space.
