An ink-jet recording apparatus includes a recording head which jets inks, and a cable which is connected to the recording head and which is provided with a driving circuit for applying a driving voltage of the recording head. The recording head is formed with nozzle arrays for jetting an ink of a dark color and an ink of a light color respectively. The nozzle array, which jets the ink of the dark color, is disposed farther from the driving circuit than the nozzle array which jets the ink of the light color. The nozzle array, which jets the ink of the dark color, is hardly affected by the heat from the driving circuit. Therefore, the deterioration of the recording quality, which would be otherwise caused by the disturbance of ink discharge from nozzles, is suppressed.
