To provide an inkjet printing device configured to prevent waste liquid ejected from a portion through which the waste liquid is relayed during replacement of a waste liquid tank from contaminating the inside of the printing device.SOLUTION: The inkjet printing device comprises: a waste liquid tank 4 that is housed in a housing and stores waste liquid of ink; a waste liquid reservoir 7 that relays waste liquid from a plurality of passages, in front of the waste liquid tank 4; a waste liquid tank door 3 that is opened when taking out the waste liquid tank 4 from the housing; a waste liquid catch part 22 that catches waste liquid, between the waste liquid reservoir 7 and the waste liquid tank 4; a waste liquid reservoir lifting mechanism part 10 that moves the waste liquid reservoir 7 to an upper side in a vertical direction when opening the waste liquid tank door 3; and a waste liquid catch movement mechanism part 20 that moves the waste liquid catch part 22 to a position at which the part catches the waste liquid between the waste liquid tank 4 and the waste liquid reservoir 7 when opening the waste liquid tank door 3.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】廃液タンク交換中の廃液を中継する部分から吐出される廃液で印刷装置の内部が汚れないようにしたインクジェット印刷装置を提供する。【解決手段】筐体の内部に収容されインクの廃液を貯留する廃液タンク４と、廃液タンク４の手前で複数の経路からの廃液を中継する廃液リザーバ７と、廃液タンク４を筐体から取り出す場合に開ける廃液タンク扉３と、廃液リザーバ７と廃液タンク４との間で廃液を受け止める廃液キャッチ部２２と、廃液タンク扉３を開けた場合に廃液リザーバ７を鉛直方向の上側に移動させる廃液リザーバ昇降機構部１０と、廃液タンク扉３を開けた場合に廃液タンク４と廃液リザーバ７との間の廃液を受け止める位置に廃液キャッチ部２２を移動させる廃液キャッチ移動機構部２０とを備える。【選択図】図２
