Abstract
An inkjet printer performing printing a print paper () by ejecting an UV-curing type ink to the print paper () through an inkjet print head () includes an ultraviolet irradiation device (A) having an ultraviolet light generation section () for generating ultraviolet light and optical fibers () through which the ultraviolet light generated by the section () is guided to a position close to the inkjet print head (). In the inkjet printer, ink ejection and ink curing are repeated in order to form a thick film, where the inkjet print head () performs the ink ejection for ejecting the UV-curing type ink to the print paper (), and the ultraviolet irradiation device (A) performs the ink curing for curing the ink printed on the print paper () immediately following the ink ejection.
