ABSTRACT:
A capping device includes a capping member releasably attached to an ink cartridge by cooperation of holding portions formed on resilient arms of the capping member and retaining grooves formed in the ink cartridge. When the ink cartridge is attached to an ink jet head part in an ink jet printer, wedge portions of the capping member engage in slits formed in the head part, and when the ink cartridge is removed from an ink supply part of the ink jet head part, the holding portions are released from the retaining grooves by separating the ink cartridge from the ink jet head part while the wedge portions are retained in the slits. At the same time, the ink supply part is capped by a packing rubber on the cap portion of a spring arm portion of the capping member.
