An image forming apparatus for a printer forms images by injecting inks on a printing paper being fed on a feeding path. The image forming apparatus comprises a head holder surface provided on the feeding path with being opposed to a surface of the feeding path and a plurality of ink heads for injecting inks from injection ports thereof. Here, the injection ports of the plurality of ink heads are projected outward from the head holder surface. The image forming apparatus can achieve further downsizing and multifunctional capability and improve quality of higher pixelated printed images. In addition, the image forming apparatus can prevent negative effects such as ink injection failures or defacement of printed matters due to ink mists made on injecting ink.

To meet a demand for changing a print medium size, particularly for increasing the size of print medium while at the same time satisfying the demand for higher printing speed. To that end, a plurality of printer units (116), which are spatially independent of each other (separate from each other) and also independent in the signal system and the ink system, are arranged in an appropriate layout to allow for a line-sequential printing. An information processing device (100) divides a generated image into a plurality of pieces of print data and transfers them to the plurality of printer units. A transport device (117) is installed to feed a large-sized print medium to an area where the plurality of printer units are arranged. The transport device transfers to each of the plurality of printer units a print timing signal corresponding to the position of each printer unit.

A method of manufacturing an ink jet head having a substrate that has a plurality of energy generating elements used for generating energy that in turn is used to discharge ink. The substrate has recessed portions separating the energy generating elements, and a wall member is provided having depending flow passage walls which are joined respectively to the recessed portions. The energy generating elements act on the ink and discharge it through the flow passages.
