ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a liquid consumption apparatus including a liquid consumption unit, a counting unit that counts the amount of the liquid consumed by the liquid consumption unit as a liquid consumption amount, a reception unit that receives a detection signal indicating that the amount of the liquid contained in the liquid container is not more than a predetermined amount; a detection-time liquid amount memory unit that memorizes the liquid consumption amount at the time of reception of the detection signal as a detection-time liquid consumption amount, and a judgment unit that judges that the liquid container is empty when the amount of difference between the liquid consumption amount and the detection-time liquid consumption amount is not more than a specified amount.
