Abstract: Provided is an ink liquid level height measuring apparatus that includes: a detector that detects, as a continuous value, a change in a physical quantity associated with a change in a liquid level height of ink in a container; and at least one hardware processor. The at least one hardware processor obtains the liquid level height based on the physical quantity that has been detected.
