Claims

[Claims for Utility Model Registration] 1. A carriage equipped with a print head having at least one nozzle for ejecting ink particles is moved back and forth along a print line, and in the process of this movement, ink particles are ejected from the print head. In an inkjet printer that prints, a waste ink tank is provided at the home position of the carriage and is rotatably supported around a fulcrum pin provided approximately in the center of the side wall of the waste ink tank, and an upper front surface of the waste ink tank. a cap that covers the nozzles of the print head, and a cap that is attached to the front surface of the waste ink tank with one end facing the carriage, and has an inclined part that is inclined with respect to the carriage running direction, and a cap that is provided at the tip thereof with a cap that covers the nozzles of the print head; An actuator having parallel flat portions. 2. The head protection device for an inkjet printer according to claim 1, wherein the distance between the fulcrum pin and the center of the cap is approximately equal to the distance between the fulcrum pin and the actuator.
