A liquid ejecting apparatus comprising: a plurality of nozzles configured to eject a liquid; pressure chambers configured to communicate with the nozzles; pressure generating units configured to cause pressures of the pressure chambers to change; a liquid supplying unit configured to supply the liquid to the pressure chambers and to collect the liquid which has passed through the pressure chambers; a controller configured to drive the pressure generating units of the pressure chambers in response to a liquid ejection request which requests liquid ejection from the nozzles; and an ejection fault determination unit configured to determine an occurrence of a fault in the liquid ejection using a vibration transition of a residual vibration which occurs in the liquid of the pressure chambers according to a pressure change which accompanies driving of the pressure generating units, wherein, when the ejection fault determination unit determines that a fault has occurred, the controller is configured to stop the driving of a pressure generating unit corresponding to an ejection fault pressure chamber among the pressure generating units, for a fixed stopping period, and then to restart the driving of the pressure generating unit corresponding to the ejection fault pressure chamber, following the fixed stopping period; wherein the controller is configured to continue the driving of other pressure generating units among the pressure generating units during the fixed stopping period; and wherein the liquid supplying unit is configured to supply the liquid to the pressure chambers and to collect the liquid that has passed through the pressure chambers during the fixed stopping period. a plurality of nozzles configured to eject a liquid; pressure chambers configured to communicate with the nozzles; pressure generating units configured to cause pressures of the pressure chambers to change; a liquid supplying unit configured to supply the liquid to the pressure chambers and to collect the liquid which has passed through the pressure chambers; a controller configured to drive the pressure generating units of the pressure chambers in response to a liquid ejection request which requests liquid ejection from the nozzles; and an ejection fault determination unit configured to determine an occurrence of a fault in the liquid ejection using a vibration transition of a residual vibration which occurs in the liquid of the pressure chambers according to a pressure change which accompanies driving of the pressure generating units, wherein, when the ejection fault determination unit determines that a fault has occurred, the controller is configured to stop the driving of a pressure generating unit corresponding to an ejection fault pressure chamber among the pressure generating units, for a fixed stopping period, and then to restart the driving of the pressure generating unit corresponding to the ejection fault pressure chamber, following the fixed stopping period; wherein the controller is configured to continue the driving of other pressure generating units among the pressure generating units during the fixed stopping period; and wherein the liquid supplying unit is configured to supply the liquid to the pressure chambers and to collect the liquid that has passed through the pressure chambers during the fixed stopping period.
