An inkjet printer in a multi-function device includes a scanner that reads an image of a document, a sheet transport path along which a recording sheet is transported, a print unit having a printhead that ejects ink onto the recording sheet, a discharge portion from which the recording sheet is discharged, and ink cartridges that store ink to be supplied to the printhead. The sheet transport path and the discharge portion are disposed under the scanner, and the ink cartridges are disposed under the discharge portion. Main components of the inkjet printer, such as the ink cartridges, a main board for controlling operation of the printer, and a waste ink absorber, are arranged so that they do not overlap one another in the plan view of the ink-jet printer. With this structure, the ink-jet printer as well as the multi-function device are made thin and compact.
