PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a platen whereby a leading end of a printing paper is prevented from being hooked when the printing paper passes on the platen having groove holes formed for ink disposal, and a distance between a recording head part and the printing paper can be maintained constant as much as possible. SOLUTION: Groove holes 10 and 11 for ink disposal are formed to a platen face of the platen 50. The paper P is supported from below by ribs 7, 8 and 9 formed to the platen face, so that the distance to the recording head part 1 is regulated. An end part of the upstream side in a transfer direction of the rib 8 is formed to be an inclined plane, allowing the leading end of the paper P to pass without being hooked. An end part of the downstream side in the transfer direction of the rib 8 is formed to be square, and an end part of the upstream side in the transfer direction of the rib 9 is formed to be an inclined plane. Accordingly, the leading end of the paper P separating from the rib 8 is prevented from immediately dropping into the groove hole 11 and can be immediately raised up by the inclined plane of the rib 9 even if it drops. |
