Zusammenfassung:To prevent duplication of order placement when an expendable item has been already ordered.SOLUTION: A recording device includes: checking an ink residual amount at predetermined timing (S301); determining whether an order has been transmitted by referring to a nonvolatile memory of an ink tank when the residual amount is equal to or smaller than a predetermined amount (S303, S304); transmitting an order request to a server when being determined that the order has not been transmitted (S305); and recording the event that the order has been transmitted on the nonvolatile memory of the ink tank (S306).SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】消耗品が既に発注されている場合に、重複して発注が行われることを防ぐ。【解決手段】所定のタイミングでインク残量をチェックし(S301)、残量が所定量以下なら、インクタンクの不揮発メモリを参照して発注を送信済みか判定し(S303、S304)、未送信なら発注要求をサーバに送信し(S305)、送信済みであることをインクタンクの不揮発メモリに記録する(S306)。【選択図】図3
