After that, it is sent to the next hollow fiber membrane element. Therefore, compared to the case of using a hollow fiber membrane element without an ink merging chamber, the removal efficiency per membrane area is improved, and the dissolved gas in the ink can be removed with a high ink treatment amount. You.
- the hollow fiber membrane elements are connected by the connecting member 5, they can be easily attached and detached, so that they can be easily replaced.
- an optimum design can be easily performed.

- the degree of ink degassing achieved by the method of the present invention varies depending on the processing flow rate and the gas permeation performance of the hollow fiber membrane used, but it is preferable to degas all the dissolved gas in the ink to 2950 g / L or less.
- the frequency of missing print dots during ink jet recording is reduced to 0.5% or less.
- the printing dot missing frequency means the ratio of the number of dots which are not printed and become blank with respect to all the printing dots.
- the composite hollow fiber membrane nitrogen permeation flux has a 0. ⁇ 5 X 1 0- 9 cm 3 / (cm 2 ⁇ P a ⁇ sec) or more permeability Preferably, it is used.
- the ink is supplied to the ink filling flow path for guiding the ink to the ink cartridge.
- Dissolved gas in the ink is degassed by arranging a degassing device and depressurizing the outer surface side of the hollow fiber membrane to reduce the total dissolved gas concentration of the ink filled in the ink cartridge to 2950 ⁇ g.
- Ink cartridges for ink jet printing can be manufactured by setting the ratio to / L or less.
- the ink cartridge When filling the ink cartridge with ink, it is particularly preferable to fill the ink cartridge with an ink having a total dissolved gas concentration of 2950 ppb or less after reducing the pressure in the ink cartridge. If the ink is pumped and filled without reducing the pressure inside the ink cartridge, the pump will be pumped again during the degassed ink. There is a risk that the gas or mixed gas may dissolve, and the desired effect of the present invention may not be maintained.
