The ink supply tube 27 changes the shape of the curved portion 27a by following movement of the carriage while the another end side is supported by the carriage 19. The contact member 35 bears a reactive force directed to the primary guide shaft 17 in a conveying direction of a recording paper throughout a scanning region of the carriage 19 from the ink supply tube 27. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
