Abstract
In an acoustic ink jet printer, a configuration is such that an ink unitand a piezoelectric body unitare separated, and a printing is carried out by the ink unit moving on the piezoelectric body unit. Herein, a configuration is such that a plurality of ink cartridges are disposed on a recording head. Also, at this time, a configuration is such that only necessary ink cartridges are disposed on the recording head. An acoustic ink jet printer is obtained with which a replacement of a head unit is unnecessary even in the event of a clogging or the like occurring in a nozzle, and with which, the structure of the ink cartridges being simplified, and furthermore, a simplification of the apparatus being achieved even when colorizing, a reduction in cost is possible.
