• a flow path to which ink is supplied from outside through the ink supply port;
• a plurality of ejectors communicating with the flowpath, respectively, each of the plurality of ejectors including:
• a pressure chamber communicating with the flow path;
• a pressure generating unit for generating a pressure wave in ink charged into the pressure chamber;
• and
• a nozzle for ejecting the ink from the pressure chamber due to the pressure wave;
• a nozzle plate in which the nozzles are formed;
• and
• a damper member covering the flow path for suppressing crosstalk occurring among the plurality of pressure chambers or for preventing shortage of ink supply to the pressure chamber,
• wherein the nozzle plate is used as the damper member.
