The ink layer block (7) also includes two or more different ink layers (4, 5). There are a plurality of printing modes. When one printing mode is selected and set, the ink layer block (7) is moved such that a corresponding ink layer is moved to an associated head. Then, the ink in that ink layer is jetted out as droplets onto a recording target by ultrasonic waves generated by the head, thereby recording an image (FIG. 1).
