Abstract

See full text

An inkjet printer has a nozzle cap that keeps the nozzle surface of the inkjet head moisturized, and can keep the nozzle cap moist by means of a simple mechanism. A check processing device incorporating the inkjet printer has an inkjet head, a nozzle cap that covers the nozzle surface of the inkjet head and keeps the nozzle surface moist, and a shutter that closes the open part of the nozzle cap to keep the inside of the nozzle cap moist. When the nozzle surface of the inkjet head is not capped, a moisture retention state in which moisture inside the nozzle cap is prevented from evaporating can be held by the shutter covering the open part of the nozzle cap.
