Zusammenfassung: | To provide an ink heater which can inhibit progression of deterioration of an elastic member.SOLUTION: An ink heater incorporated into an inkjet printer includes: a planar heating member which is bonded in a state that one surface is thermally coupled to an outer surface of an ink tank in which an ink is stored; an adiathermic elastic member which is provided on the other surface side of the heating member and presses the heating member to the ink tank side; and a control unit which gradually controls heating of the heating member according to the downtime of a printer body when the printer body is actuated.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 12
【課題】弾性部材の劣化の進行を抑制することが可能なインク加熱装置を提供する。【解決手段】インクジェット方式の印刷装置に内蔵されるインク加熱装置は、インクを貯留するインクタンクの外面に一の面が熱結合する状態で貼着される面状の加熱部材と、加熱部材の他方の面側に設けられ、加熱部材をインクタンク側に押圧する断熱性の弾性部材と、印刷装置本体部の起動時に印刷装置本体部の停止時間に応じて段階的に加熱部材を加熱制御する制御部と、を備える。【選択図】図12 |
