Abstract (en)

An image recording apparatus includes a cartridge mounting portion configured to support an ink cartridge in a predetermined mounted position. The image recording apparatus also includes a restricting member configured to restrict a movement of the ink cartridge by contacting the ink cartridge being in the mounted position, an urging member, and a sliding member configured to be urged by the urging member in the removal direction. The image recording apparatus further includes a detector configured to detect the sliding member, and a controller configured to perform a cartridge-mount-complete process when the controller determines that the sliding member is detected by the detector. The sliding member is shifted from a contact point between the restricting member and the ink cartridge in a direction perpendicular to a supporting surface of the cartridge mounting portion on which the ink cartridge is supported.
