Abstract

Ink cartridge (12) includes a container (58) defining at least one reservoir (60) in which ink is receivable. An end molding (70) is arranged at a first end of the container. The molding is breached by a mating formation (74) of a printhead. A seal arrangement is arranged at the other end of the container (58). The seal arrangement (66) comprises an end cap (62) and a pellet (68) of gelatinous or hydrophobic, moldable material received in each reservoir (60). The pellet (68) is of a consistency which retains its shape as it is drawn towards the first end of the container as ink is withdrawn from the container, in use.
