Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a main body and a printing assembly. The printing assembly includes a carriage, an encoder scale, an encoder sensor, and a flexible cable. The carriage has a head mounting part and a board mounting part arranged along a direction perpendicular to the main scanning direction. The head mounting part mounts a recording head. The board mounting part mounts both the sensor and a carriage-side circuit board connected to the cable. A housing of the body has a first cover portion to cover an area opposing the head mounting part and a second cover portion to cover an area opposing the board mounting part. The first cover portion is openably disposed at the body to allow a user to open the first cover portion. The second cover portion is stationarily fixed at the body to prevent a user from opening the second cover portion.
