In an ink jet head, in order to make the occupying area of a chamber associated to each nozzle as small as possible, while maintaining a discharge ink drop volume, and on the other hand, to locate a number of nozzles with a high density, the plan view shape of a pressure plate provided to each chamber is so configured to fulfill the relation of 1<=A<=2, where "A" is the ratio of an circumscribed circle diamrter of the plan view shape of the pressure plate to an inscribed circle d ameter of the plan view shape of the pressure plate. For example, the pressure plate is formed to have the plan view shape of a substantial square or a substantial rhombus. The chambers having such a feature are located in the form of a matrix. Thus, a stably driven, highly reliable in jet head can be realized.
