Abstract
An ink-jet head includes a nozzle row which jets a black ink, and nozzle rows which jet color inks, and a nozzle row which jets a special color ink. These nozzle rows are arranged in a scanning direction, and further, the nozzle row jetting the special color ink is positioned at an extreme end with respect to the scanning direction. Accordingly, it is possible to realize a small size printer which is capable of jetting the special color ink. Furthermore, it is possible to suppress the special color ink from getting mixed into a nozzle which jets an ink of other type.
