Printer

A printer configured to perform printing on a recording medium, comprising:

• a first head chip corresponding to a first ink and formed with nozzles which are arrayed in a second direction orthogonal to a first direction in which the recording medium is conveyed;
• a second head chip corresponding to the first ink, formed with nozzles arrayed in the second direction, and arranged at a position which is different from an arrangement position of the first head chip in the second direction and is adjacent to an arrangement position of the first head chip in the first direction;
• a third head chip corresponding to a second ink, formed with nozzles arrayed in the second direction, and arranged at a position which corresponds to the arrangement position of the first head chip in the second direction;
• a fourth head chip corresponding to the second ink, formed with nozzles arrayed in the second direction, and arranged at a position which corresponds to an arrangement position of the second head chip in the second direction and is adjacent to an arrangement position of the third head chip in the first direction;
• a first roller arranged to face the first head chip in the first direction on one side of the second head chip in the second direction;
• and
• a second roller arranged to face the third head chip in the first direction on one side of the fourth head chip in the second direction,
• wherein, when it is assumed that a nozzle, of nozzles arranged in the second head chip and used for printing, which is positioned closest to the one side in the second direction is referred to as a nozzle A and that a nozzle, of nozzles arranged in the fourth head chip and used for printing, which is positioned closest to the one side in the second direction is referred to as a nozzle B, the nozzle A is arranged closer to the one side in the second direction than the nozzle B and the first roller is arranged closer to the other side in the second direction than the second roller.

• a first pressing part configured to press the recording medium and arranged to face the first head chip in the first direction on one side of the second head chip in the second direction;
• and
• a second pressing part configured to press the recording medium and arranged to face the third head chip in the first direction on one side of the fourth head chip in the second direction,
