An inkjet printer can appropriately flush two inkjet heads disposed to a carriage. The inkjet printer 1 flushes the first inkjet head 13A before printing starts when print data is received (step ST1), and flushes a second inkjet head 13B while the carriage 14 returns from the printing area C to the home position A after printing ends (steps ST2, ST3). As a result, because the carriage 14 is not moved from the home position A before printing starts, the start of printing is not delayed. Furthermore, because the direction of carriage 14 movement does not change after the second inkjet head 13B is flushed, the carriage 14 returns to the home position A quickly. Starting printing the next print data is therefore not delayed. |
