According to an inkjet recording apparatus as an aspect of the present invention, the nozzle surface is wiped by a wiping member which rotates about an axle perpendicular to the nozzle surface. Consequently, the nozzle surface can be wiped in multiple directions and it is possible effectively to prevent deterioration of the lyophobic film, or adhering material being pushed inside the nozzles, due to wiping in one direction only. Furthermore, since a composition which rotates only the wiping member is adopted, then the composition of the wiping apparatus can be made compact.
