Abstract:
1. A liquid discharging apparatus that is provided with a discharging head having a plurality of nozzles which discharge liquid, comprising: a storage section which stores liquid; a circulation path configured to include the discharging head and having an opening end portion on one side and an opening end portion on the other side which are disposed together in the storage section; a pumping section which is provided further on the opening end portion side on one side than the discharging head in the circulation path and is capable of pumping liquid such that liquid circulates in the circulation path; a sealing section capable of sealing each of the plurality of nozzles; a pressurization section capable of pressurizing the storage section; and a control-during-filling section which executes first control in which the sealing section and the pumping section are controlled such that liquid circulates in the circulation path by driving of the pumping section in a state where each of the plurality of nozzles is sealed by the sealing section, when filling the discharging head with liquid, and executes second control in which the pressurization section and the sealing section are controlled such that sealing of the plurality of nozzles by the sealing section is released while the storage section is pressurized by the pressurization section, after the execution of the first control.
