ABSTRACT:
There is provided an ink-jet recording apparatus that can maintain a constant light emission intensity of a light source with a simple structure, and allows easy replacement of the light source, while realizing miniaturization and reduction in weight of the apparatus. The ink-jet recording apparatus includes a recording head to jet photocurable ink onto a recording medium, wherein the photocurable ink is cured by being exposed to light; and a light emitting device having a light source to emit light to cure the photocurable ink, the light source including a light emitting tube and metal caps provided at both ends of the light emitting tube, wherein the light emitting tube has a bent section.
