ABSTRACT:
A flexible wiring cable60connects a recording head7and a relay board, and includes COF (chip on film)62for connecting an output side wiring pattern of an IC chip61to the recording head7, and general purpose FFC (flexible flat cable)63formed with a parallel wiring pattern. The flexible wiring cable60connects the output side wiring pattern of the IC chip61to the relay board50via FFC63, thereby decreasing the use of more expensive COF62by the use of cheap, general purpose FFC63. Thus, the product cost as the entire recording apparatus is reduced by using the general purpose flexible board for a part of a flexible board having a driving circuit mounted thereon and serving as a connecting means for connecting a recording means and a relay board, suppressing the manufacturing cost of parts for connecting means.
