A liquid agent mist recovery device for a liquid agent application device prevents dripping of a droplet formed from a sucked liquid agent mist onto a sheet. The ink mist recovery device installed downstream of an inkjet head includes a recovery casing with an opening for introducing the mist. The opening is communicated with a recovery hole connected to a suction fun, and positioned apart from an upstream wall surface by a distance corresponding to receiving portions for receiving a droplet trickling from the wall surface, and apart from a downstream wall surface so that air introduced from downstream obstructs the flow of the upstream liquid agent mist for guiding into the recovery hole. The liquid agent mist from upstream is securely introduced and recovered. The liquid agent mist trickling from the wall surface of the recovery hole is received by the receiving portion rather than dripping onto the sheet.
