Disclosed is an inkjet printer comprises: an ink jet head having a first array of a plurality of nozzles from which ink drops are discharged; a scanning unit for scanning said ink jet head in a first direction so that the ink drops are discharged within a predetermined extent with respect to the first direction; and a transporter for reciprocally transporting a recording medium in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, said transporter comprising at least one member brought into contacting with a recording surface of the recording medium, said at least one member being provided at a position that is outside of the predetermined extent with respect to the first direction. Since the transporter is brought into contact with the recording surface of the recording medium only at the position outside of the predetermined extent, the recorded ink that have not been dry is prevented from contacting with the member of the transporter, e.g., a roller. Therefore, a low cost printer that is capable of high speed recording without image quality deterioration can be obtained.
