ABSTRACT:
An ink jet printer is provided with an ink jet head, a recovery device, a timer, and a controller. The ink jet head discharges ink. The recovery device executes a recovery action to recover an ink discharging ability of the ink jet head. The timer measures time since a last recovery action of the recovery device. The controller selects an interval based on a printing history of the ink jet printer and controls the recovery device to execute the recovery action when the time measured by the timer becomes equal to the selected interval. The recovery action is performed at an appropriate timing.
