Abstract
An inkjet recording apparatus is made capable of preventing ink from sticking during inactivity of the apparatus and, when viscosity of ink contained in a main ink container has fallen outside an appropriate range of viscosity, adjusting ink viscosity to fall within the appropriate range. The apparatus is configured to perform repetitively supplying a solvent contained in a solvent container to the print head and letting the solvent flow back to an ink container through a circulation path and a collection path at intervals of a certain period of time during inactivity of printing by the print head through controlling the print head and a main body.
