Abstract:
1. A method for adjusting positions of nozzle row units of a liquid ejecting apparatus that is provided with a moving unit that moves by receiving a moving force, and a plurality of nozzle row units, each of said nozzle row units having nozzle rows for ejecting liquid onto a medium, wherein a position, on said moving unit, of each of said nozzle row units is adjustable, said method comprising: adjusting the position of a nozzle row unit that is arranged closer to a line of action of said moving force than any other nozzle row unit; adjusting the position of each of said remaining nozzle row units by taking said nozzle row unit that is arranged closest to said line of action of said moving force as a reference, said line of action being a line that passes through points upon which said moving force acts and being in a direction of said moving force, wherein said nozzle row units are successively arranged at different positions, respectively, along a line extending in a direction that is perpendicular to said line of action of said moving force.
