Abstract
The inkjet recording apparatus includes a recording head, a cap member, a humidifying part for humidifying interior of the cap member, a cap moving mechanism, a controller, and a storage part. The storage part has stored a non-capping period table in which a number of vibrations of ink level within each nozzle is increased based on a non-capping period of an ink ejection surface, and a capping period table in which the number of vibrations is decreased based on a capping period of the ink ejection surface. In response to respective lengths of the non-capping period and the capping period from an end of ink ejection until a start of next ink ejection, the controller sets the number of vibrations at a start time of next ink ejection by using the non-capping period table and the capping period table.
