An ink jet printer comprises a recording head (19) having an ink jet slit for ejecting ink onto a recording sheet, a sheet feeder (11) for carrying the recording sheet toward and from the recording head (19), a cleaner (13) for cleaning the ink jet slit. The cleaner (13) is activated by the movement of the sheet feeder (11) while the recording sheet is not set on the recording head (19) and the recording head (19) is out of operation, for prevention of stain of the recording sheet and enhancement of the processing by the CPU (15) for controlling the ink jet printer. <IMAGE> |
