The sub tank 1203 stores ink therein to supply the three heads 1205, and the head control board 1202 controls the heads to operate (the operation principle of the head control board 1202 controlling the heads is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here). The temperature detector is used to detect the temperature of the sub cartridge 1203 (the temperature detector may be a contact type temperature detector or a non-contact type temperature detector; the operation principle of the temperature detector is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here).

As shown in fig. 17, the sub cartridge 1203 is mounted on a cartridge holder 1204, the cartridge holder 1204 is fixedly connected with the housing 1201, three ring-shaped heating tapes are arranged on the outer wall of the sub cartridge 1203, each heating tape is wound on the outer wall of the sub cartridge 1203, the inner wall of each heating tape is attached to the outer wall of the sub cartridge 1203 to heat the ink in the sub cartridge 1203 by heating of the heating tape, the three heating tapes are respectively a first heating tape 12031, a second heating tape 12032 and a third heating tape 12033, the first heating tape 12031, the second heating tape 12032 and the third heating tape 12033 are respectively arranged in sequence from top to bottom in the vertical direction, the height difference between the first heating tape 12031 and the second heating tape 12032 is equal to the height difference between the second heating tape 12032 and the third heating tape 12033 to ensure that the first heating tape 12031, the second heating tape 12032 and the third heating tape 12033 are uniformly arranged on the outer wall of the sub cartridge 1203, the ink is heated uniformly.
