Original Abstract Submitted

a cartridge unit includes: a first unit which includes a first supporting portion and a second supporting portion; and a second unit which includes a first supported portion, a second supported portion, and a storage member, the storage member including a memory contact, and a contact arrangement surface on which the memory contact is disposed. the second unit rotates from a first position to a second position in a state in which the first supported portion is supported by the first supporting portion and the second supported portion is supported by the second supporting portion to be positioned with respect to the first unit. a normal direction of the contact arrangement surface faces toward a direction in which the memory contact is exposed. the normal direction faces toward a direction opposite to a direction in which the second unit is directed from the first position to the second position.
