Inkjet recording apparatus

1. An inkjet recording apparatus for ejecting ink through a nozzle onto a recording medium, comprising:

at least two line heads each having a nozzle surface in which nozzles are provided over a width of the recording medium, the at least two line heads being arranged along a transfer direction perpendicular to the width,

at least two line cleaners each corresponding to one of said at least two line heads and each configured to come in close contact with the nozzle surface of the corresponding one of said at least two line heads for cleaning the nozzle surface, the at least two line cleaners being arranged along the transfer direction at positions which deviate from the recording medium in the width direction;

at least one head adjustment stage for adjusting an inclination of the nozzle surface in a corresponding line head with respect to the recording medium; and

at least one cleaner adjustment stage for adjusting the position of a corresponding line cleaner according to the inclination of the nozzle surface of a corresponding line head with respect to the recording medium such that the line cleaner comes in close contact with the nozzle surface.

2. The inkjet recording apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein each of the at least two line heads moves independently along the width direction of the recording medium between a recording position on the recording medium and a cleaning position on the line cleaner.

3. The inkjet recording apparatus of claim 2 , further comprising:

at least two blades each for wiping the nozzle surface in the width direction as a corresponding one of the at least two line heads travels.

4. An inkjet recording apparatus for ejecting ink through a nozzle onto a recording medium, comprising:

a line head having a nozzle surface in which nozzles are provided along the width direction of the recording medium;

a cleaner configured to come in close contact with the nozzle surface for cleaning the nozzle surface, the cleaner being arranged at a position which deviates from the recording medium in the width direction;

a head adjustment stage for adjusting an inclination of the nozzle surface with respect to the recording medium; and

a cleaner adjustment stage for adjusting the position of the cleaner according to the inclination of the nozzle surface with respect to the recording medium such that the cleaner comes in close contact with the nozzle surface.

5. The inkjet recording apparatus of claim 4 ,

wherein the line head moves along the width direction between a recording position on the recording medium and a cleaning position on the line cleaner.

6. The inkjet recording apparatus of claim 4 ,

wherein the cleaner is a purge unit.

7. An inkjet recording apparatus for ejecting ink through a nozzle onto a recording medium, comprising:

at least two line heads each having a nozzle surface in which nozzles are provided over a width direction of the recording medium, the at least two line heads being arranged along a transfer direction of the recording medium perpendicular to the width direction;

at least two line cleaning means each corresponding to one of said at least two line heads and each configured to come in close contact with the nozzle surface of the corresponding one of said at least two line heads for cleaning the nozzle surface, the at least two line cleaning means being arranged along the transfer direction of the recording medium at positions which deviate from the recording medium in the width direction;

at least one head adjustment stage for adjusting an inclination of the nozzle surface in a corresponding line head with respect to the recording medium; and

at least one cleaner adjustment stage for adjusting the position of a corresponding line cleaning means according to the inclination of the nozzle surface of a corresponding line head with respect to the recording medium such that the line cleaning means comes in close contact with the nozzle surface.
