The inkjet recording head includes a head body and a metallic film is provided at least on a part of at least one side of the head body. The head body includes a plurality of orifices, an ink ejection unit arranged so as to correspond to each of the orifices, an independent ink flow path for supplying ink to each of the orifices and a common ink flow path for supplying ink to the independent ink flow path. The manufacturing method of the inkjet recording head forms the metallic film at least on a part of an opposite surface of a substrate to the individual ink flow paths, before adhering the orifice plate in which the orifices are formed. The inkjet printer uses the inkjet recording head.
