Abstract
An inkjet printer including a platen that supports a recording medium; an inkjet head having a nozzle surface that ejects ink, which cures by being irradiated with light, toward the recording medium; a light irradiation device that irradiates the ink attached to the recording medium with light; and a carriage that is mounted on the inkjet head and the light irradiation device, and is scanned with respect to the platen; where an uneven portion for suppressing stray light from the light irradiation device from reaching the nozzle surface is provided in a portion closer to the nozzle surface than the light irradiation device in a scanning direction; and the uneven portion is provided at a position facing a space on a path of the stray light from the light irradiation device to the nozzle surface in a space between the portion and the platen.
