PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To avoid a problem that ink in an ink containing section cannot be collected due to clogging of a filter or failure of a suction pump when ink is discharged into the ink containing section from a recording head in order to sustain the recording head in a good ink ejecting state, i.e. a problem that the inside of a recorder is stained with ink. SOLUTION: A cap 4 collected while containing ink discharged from the nozzle of a recording head 1 is provided with an ink sensor 13 for detecting ink in the cap 4. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
