PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To extend a life of a wiring cable or an ink tube in a simple structure and to prevent noise due to electromagnetic noise by suppressing the electromagnetic noise emitted from the wiring cable. SOLUTION: A curved section formed on an intermediate portion of a flexible print cable 4 moves by following a carriage 1. The flexible print cable 4 is wrapped with the flexible ink tube 3. The ink tube is so constituted that pipes for ink are disposed at the outside of the curved section and then each of the pipes is used as an absorbing means to protect the flexible print cable 4. A rubber or the like to be a material for the ink tube 3 is so constituted that conductive fine particles are dispersed therein to make the ink tube 3 conductive and the ink tube 3 is electrically connected to the ground of the apparatus body. As a result, the electromagnetic noise emitted from the flexible print cable 4 is attenuated so that vibration due to the electromagnetic noise is suppressed. |
