PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent ink from adhering to a rear face of a printing medium. SOLUTION: A printing stand 13 for supporting a paper sheet to be the printing medium is inclined, and an ink receiving part 32 as a recess is formed at a paper support face 13a of the printing stand 13. The ink receiving part 32 for collecting ink which overflows after discharged to the vicinity of edges of the paper at the time of non-margin printing has an ink absorber 40 disposed inside. The ink absorber 40 is constituted by layering two sheet members 40a and 40b with a positional difference in a transfer direction. The sheet members 40a and 40b are of nearly the same size having the length related to the transfer direction shorter than that of the ink receiving part 32. In other words, a surface of the sheet member 40a at the upper side of the inclination at the ink absorber 40 is present slightly closer to the bottom face side of the ink receiving part 32 than the support face 13a of the printing stand 13, and a surface of the sheet member 40b at the lower side of the inclination is present further closer to the bottom face side of the ink receiving part 32 than the surface of the sheet member 40a. Thus a step is generated at the surface of the ink absorber 40. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
