Claim:
An image recording apparatus comprising: a recording head which records an image on a recording medium by ejecting ink droplets; a carriage which is mounted with the recording head and reciprocates in a reciprocation direction intersecting a transport direction of the recording medium; a conductive wire having flexibility capable of changing its posture in accordance with reciprocation of the carriage, one end side of the conductive wire being fixed to the carriage and the conductive wire extending from the carriage, the conductive wire transmitting a recording signal to the recording head; a regulating wall which extends along the reciprocation direction of the carriage and suppresses the conductive wire from swelling in a direction separating away from the carriage; and a fixing member which fixes other end side of the conductive wire to an apparatus body by forming a curved portion inverted in the reciprocation direction of the carriage at a predetermined position between the regulating wall and the carriage in the conductive wire and pressing the other end side of the conductive wire toward the regulating wall.
