A maintenance unit includes a fixed-side cover in which multiple first openings are formed and a movable-side cover in which multiple second openings are formed. A moving mechanism slides the movable-side cover with respect to the fixed-side cover in a Y direction between a closed position where the second opening is disposed between multiple first openings in the Y direction and the movable-side cover closes the first openings, and an open position where the first opening and the second opening adjacent to each other at the closed position are overlapped in the vertical direction and an entire of multiple ink receiving portions are exposed.
