PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To miniaturize a tube pump and an apparatus main body by reducing the transfer length of a pressurization member which squeezes tubes for a necessary pump capacity when the tube pump is used for the suction recovery treatment of a recording head. SOLUTION: In a tube pump composed of tubes to be connected to the inside of a cap (77) for capping a recording head, at least the pump part of the tube pump is composed of flexible tubes (106, 107 or 104, 108) which are arranged in parallel, and the tubes are squeezed simultaneously by a pressurization member. |
