Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress increase in the size of an apparatus by reducing the space for moving a conveyer belt upon recovery operation of ink jet heads and the space for disposing a maintenance unit.

The maintenance unit 120 having an elastic sheet 122 and caps 124 is inserted in the clearance.
