Abstract:
1. A liquid ejecting apparatus comprising: a supporting member that contacts a medium when the medium is transported; a head ejecting a liquid to the medium while the medium contacts the supporting member, the head positioned so as to face the supporting member; and a light source that emits an electromagnetic wave to the liquid that has been ejected to the medium by the head, wherein, when the light source emits the electromagnetic wave to the liquid that has been ejected to a portion of the medium, wherein a first component force of the gravity working on the liquid landed on the medium is larger than a second component force of the gravity working on the liquid landed on the medium at a position in which the medium opposes the light source, wherein the first component force is parallel to the dot forming surface and the second component force is perpendicular to the dot forming surface.
