Image recording apparatus

An image recording apparatus including a wiping mechanism for wiping a conveying member, the image recording apparatus comprising:

• a head configured to eject liquid onto a recording medium;
• the conveying member which has a support face facing the head and which is configured to convey the recording medium in a conveying direction by moving the support face supporting the recording medium thereon in the conveying direction;
• a first wiper extending in a direction intersecting the conveying direction;
• a second wiper extending at least in the conveying direction;
• a first-wiping driving portion configured to drive the first wiper and the conveying member to perform a first wiping operation for:
• adjusting a position of the conveying member;
• bringing a distal end of the first wiper located at a position distant from the support face, into contact with the support face;
• and
• moving the first wiper and the support face relative to each other in the conveying direction;
• a second-wiping driving portion configured to drive the second wiper and the conveying member to perform a second wiping operation for:
• adjusting the position of the conveying member;
• bringing a distal end of the second wiper located at a position distant from the support face, into contact with the support face;
• and
• moving the second wiper and the support face relative to each other in a direction intersecting the conveying direction;
• and
• a controller configured to control the first-wiping driving portion and the second-wiping driving portion;
• wherein the controller is configured to control the first-wiping driving portion and the second-wiping driving portion to perform a first cleaning operation including the first wiping operation and the second wiping operation which is performed after a completion of the first wiping operation;
• and
• wherein the controller is configured to control the second-wiping driving portion in the second wiping operation such that the second wiper wipes the support face to remove a foreign material remaining on the support face when the first wiper is released from the support face in the first wiping operation.
