Recording apparatus

摘要

A recording apparatus includes a transportation mechanism that supports and transports a recording medium by a support surface; a recording head that is disposed in a region facing the support surface and is capable of ejecting an ink from a nozzle provided on an ink ejection surface to the recording medium; a suction unit that is capable of sucking the ink inside the nozzle; and a wiping unit that is provided as a separate body from the suction unit and is capable of wiping the ink ejection surface. At least one of the suction unit and the wiping unit is provided on a farther downstream side of the recording medium in a transportation direction than the recording head and a gap between the one and the support surface is wider than a gap between the ink ejection surface and the support surface.

1. A recording apparatus comprising:
a transportation mechanism that supports and transports a recording medium by a support surface; a recording head that is disposed in a region facing the support surface and is capable of ejecting ink from a nozzle provided on an ink ejection surface of the recording head to the recording medium; a suction unit that is capable of sucking the ink from inside the nozzle; and a wiping unit that is provided as a separate body from the suction unit and is capable of wiping the ink ejection surface, wherein at least one of the suction unit and the wiping unit is provided farther downstream in a transportation direction of the recording medium than the recording head and a gap between the at least one of the suction unit and the wiping unit and the support surface is wider than a gap between the ink ejection surface and the support surface, wherein the at least one of the suction unit and the wiping unit not provided downstream is provided farther upstream in the transportation direction of the recording medium than the recording head.
