To provide an inkjet recording device for performing retry control according to each recording head control with a simple configuration.SOLUTION: The inkjet recording device includes a controller 300, and recording head control means 310 which is positioned between the controller and a recording head and controls the recording head according to an instruction from the controller. The controller includes control means which does not execute retry of a failed instruction when transmission of the instruction to the recording head control means fails, and the instruction is an instruction included in a first communication sequence periodically performed between the control means and the recording head control means so as to control the recording head, and executes the retry of the failed instruction when the instruction is an instruction included in a second communication sequence not-periodically performed between the control means and the recording head control means so as to control the recording head.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】簡易な構成により、各記録ヘッド制御に応じたリトライ制御を行うインクジェット記録装置を提供する。【解決手段】インクジェット記録装置は、コントローラ３００と、コントローラと記録ヘッドの間に位置し、コントローラからの指示により、記録ヘッドを制御する記録ヘッド制御手段３１０とを備える。コントローラは、記録ヘッド制御手段への指示の送信が失敗した場合、指示が記録ヘッドを制御するために記録ヘッド制御手段との間で周期的に行われる第１通信シーケンスに含まれる指示である場合には、失敗した指示のリトライを実行せず、指示が記録ヘッドを制御するために記録ヘッド制御手段との間で非周期的に行われる第２通信シーケンスに含まれる指示である場合には、失敗した指示のリトライを実行する制御手段を備える。【選択図】図３
