<p>The present invention provides an ink jet recording apparatus for effecting recording by using recording means for discharging plural different inks, comprising a cap (M5001) for covering a plurality of discharge ports (H1100T) for discharging the different inks, and a pump (M5100) connected to a suction port (M5001a) of the cap and adapted to apply negative pressure to interior of the cap, and wherein the discharge ports (H100T) and the suction port (M5001a) are arranged so that flow paths of the inks flowing from the respective discharge ports to the suction port when the inks are sucked from the discharge ports by driving the pump do not pass by the discharge ports for the different inks. <IMAGE> <IMAGE></p> |
