The collection unit includes an absorber; a tray housing the absorber exposed to a nozzle surface of the head; and a pressing member to press the absorber toward a bottom surface of the tray. The pressing member includes a base material extending in an alignment direction of nozzles and end members connected to ends of the base material and displaceable to be biased to an inner wall surface of the tray in an axial direction when the pressing member is placed in the tray. The end members include a first fitting portion in a surface facing the inner wall surface. The tray includes a second fitting portion in the inner wall surface. The first and second fitting portions are fitted when the pressing member is placed in the tray. |
