Abstract
A recovery mechanism for an ink jet apparatus having a cap for capping the discharge ports of the ink jet head comprises means for cleaning the surface of the cap on the head side. This surface of the cap is cleaned to remove dust particles, paper fluffs and others adhering thereto before capping the ink jet recording head by the cap, thus assuring the air-tightness between the cap and the ink jet head by capping for the prevention of ink from being dried as well as for more reliable recovery of the ink jet head by sucking ink from the discharge ports thereof.
