Abstract: An ink jet recorder that includes line heads (4) having a plurality of nozzle heads (41), main tanks (13) placed outside of the line heads (4) to store ink; an ink supply passage (13a, 49a, 49c) that connects the main tanks (13) to the associated nozzle heads (41), and distribution tanks (6) placed in each line head (4). The number of supply tube connections (67) provided in the distribution tank (6) is smaller than that of the nozzle heads (41) arranged in the line head (4).

Abstract: An ink supplier for an ink jet recorder is provided. The ink supplier includes a recording head, a main ink reservoir, and a subsidiary ink reservoir connected to the main ink reservoir for replenishment with ink from the main ink reservoir. A position head of the ink liquid level in the subsidiary ink reservoir is maintained substantially constant relative to a printing head face of the recording head.

Abstract: A plurality of long narrow rectangular plate like nozzle heads are inclined together in a direction relative to that in which they are disposed side by side in a line in the line head for permitting ink that also gets into gaps between adjacent nozzle heads to be wiped away.

Abstract: An inkjet recording apparatus ejects ink from recording heads to a recording paper, thereby attaching the ink to the medium for recording. The apparatus includes a carriage driving motor, a transfer motor, a scanner which reciprocates a carriage having the recording heads in a scanning direction, and a transfer machine. The transfer machine transfers the recording paper in a transfer direction perpendicular to the scanning direction. Both of the motors are located at approximately the same place in an ejecting direction of ink from the heads to the paper, and at the same height of a transfer path of the paper or on the carriage side with respect to the transfer path.

Abstract: An ink-jet recording device according to the present invention includes: a paper supply tray arranged inward of a predetermined face of a main body to supply recording sheets; a paper display tray arranged inward of the same face as the paper supply tray to receive recording sheets discharged after recording; an ink cartridge loading unit, which is arranged inward of the same face as the paper supply tray, and into which an ink cartridge containing ink used for recording is loaded detachably; and a controller which disables removal of the ink cartridge during a removal inhibited period.

Abstract: In order to maintain ink supply pressure to a recording head constant while supplying the recording head with ink with an minimum of air entrained therein, the invention provides an ink supplier which comprises a main ink reservoir, a subsidiary ink reservoir connected to the main ink reservoir for replenishment with ink from the main ink reservoir and a means whereby a position head of the ink liquid level in the subsidiary ink reservoir is maintained substantially constant relative to a printing head face of the recording head. Included preferably also are a deaerator associated with the subsidiary ink reservoir for removing air from ink therein and a float floating on ink in the subsidiary ink reservoir.

Abstract: For a line head in an ink jet recorder wherein the line head comprises a plurality of long narrow rectangular plate like nozzle heads which are inclined together in a direction relative to that in which they are disposed side by side in a line in the line head, the invention is designed to be capable of wiping ink as well that gets into gaps between adjacent nozzle heads. To this end, an elastically deformable blade 13 is used that is brought into pressure contact with nozzle faces of a line head 23 and moved in a direction in which nozzle heads 24 are inclined while maintaining the blade 13 under pressure to cause it to be deformed against the nozzle faces as it is moved. Also, contaminants adhered on the blade by the wiping action is flushed with cleaning liquid rather than by a contaminant removal member.
