Abstract

Provided is an inkjet head including: ink discharge sections with pressure chambers, nozzles, and first individual ink ejection flow paths and second individual ink ejection flow paths; a first common ink ejection flow path which communicates to the first individual ink ejection flow paths and into which ink flows through the first individual ink ejection flow paths in a first flow-in section; and a second common ink ejection flow path which communicates to the second individual ink ejection flow paths and into which ink flows through the second individual ink ejection flow paths in a second flow-in section. As a position of the nozzles is nearer to a one end, corresponding positions at which ink ejected from the ink end respectively in the first flow-in section and the second flow-in section.
