The invention is directed to an inkjet recording apparatus having an inkjet head, a cap, and a moving mechanism. The inkjet head has an ejection surface having ink ejection openings. The cap is made of first and second extending portions, each of which has a leading edge closest to the ejection surface. The first and second portions define at least one enclosure. The particular moving mechanism moves one or both of the cap and the inkjet head between a first position and a second position. Each of the first extended portions extends further toward the ejection surface than each of the second extended portions. When the inkjet head and the cap are in the first position, the first extended portions contact the ejection surface, and the leading edges of the second extended portions are a predetermined distance away from the ejection surface.
