A recording head recovery system comprising: a recording head (17a to 17c) including an ink ejection surface (F1) provided with an ink ejection region (R1) in which a plurality of ink ejection ports are formed for ejecting ink onto a recording medium (S); a wiper (35a to 35c) configured to wipe the ink ejection surface (F1) in a predetermined direction; a wipe unit for holding the wiper (35a to 35c) and moving the wiper (35a to 35c) in an up and down direction while moving the same along the ink ejection surface (F1); and a control unit for controlling the wipe unit , characterized in that the recording head (17a to 17c) includes a cleaning liquid supply region (R2) disposed on an upstream side in a wiping direction of the ink ejection region (R1), the wiping direction in which the wiper (35a to 35c) wipes the ink ejection surface (F1), the cleaning liquid supply region (R2) in which a plurality of cleaning liquid supply ports for supplying cleaning liquid are formed, the control unit is capable of performing a recovery operation of the recording head (17a to 17c) including a cleaning liquid supply operation for supplying the cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid supply ports , and a wipe operation for wiping the ink ejection surface (F1) with the wiper (35a to 35c) in a state holding the cleaning liquid , by moving the wiper (35a to 35c) from a position (P1) on the wiping direction upstream side of the cleaning liquid supply region (R2) to a position (P2) on the wiping direction downstream side of the ink ejection region (R1), and in the wipe operation, a height position (H11) of a lower end part of the wiper (35a to 35c) when passing the cleaning liquid supply region (R2) is lower than a height position (H12) of the lower end part of the wiper (35a to 35c) when wiping the ink ejection region (R1). a recording head (17a to 17c) including an ink ejection surface (F1) provided with an ink ejection region (R1) in which a plurality of ink ejection ports are formed for ejecting ink onto a recording medium (S); a wiper (35a to 35c) configured to wipe the ink ejection surface (F1) in a predetermined direction; a wipe unit for holding the wiper (35a to 35c) and moving the wiper (35a to 35c) in an up and down direction while moving the same along the ink ejection surface (F1); and a control unit for controlling the wipe unit , characterized in that the recording head (17a to 17c) includes a cleaning liquid supply region (R2) disposed on an upstream side in a wiping direction of the ink ejection region (R1), the wiping direction in which the wiper (35a to 35c) wipes the ink ejection surface (F1), the cleaning liquid supply region (R2) in which a plurality of cleaning liquid supply ports for supplying cleaning liquid are formed, the control unit is capable of performing a recovery operation of the recording head (17a to 17c) including a cleaning liquid supply operation for supplying the cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid supply ports , and a wipe operation for wiping the ink ejection surface (F1) with the wiper (35a to 35c) in a state holding the cleaning liquid , by moving the wiper (35a to 35c) from a position (P1) on the wiping direction upstream side of the cleaning liquid supply region (R2) to a position (P2) on the wiping direction downstream side of the ink ejection region (R1), and in the wipe operation, a height position (H11) of a lower end part of the wiper (35a to 35c) when passing the cleaning liquid supply region (R2) is lower than a height position (H12) of the lower end part of the wiper (35a to 35c) when wiping the ink ejection region (R1). <EOS>
