Abstract
Since ink is not heated at a protrusion connecting an ink supplying device and a print head chip or the like, the viscosity of the ink increases, and the fluidity may not be maintained in some cases. An inkjet printerfor solving the above problem includes an inkjet headthat ejects ink; a protrusionprovided to protrude from the inkjet headand configured to circulate the ink to the inkjet head; and an ink flow path portionthat supplies the ink to the protrusion; where the ink flow path portionincludes an ink warming blockthat heats the ink, and a conducting portionthat is formed in the ink warming blockitself or separately from the ink warming blockand through which heat from the ink warming blockis conducted is adjacently disposed outside the protrusion
