Patent ID: 8708482

Claim:
A liquid ejecting device comprising: an apparatus casing comprising a first casing and a second casing, the apparatus casing having a first side surface and a second side surface opposite from the first side surface; a liquid ejecting head having an ejection surface that is formed with ejection ports for ejecting liquid, the liquid ejecting head being accommodated in the first casing; and a supporting section disposed in confrontation with the ejection surface and configured to support a recording medium, the supporting section being accommodated in the second casing, wherein the first casing is pivotally movable relative to the second casing about a predetermined axis, pivotal movement of the first casing allowing the first casing to take a first position at which the ejection surface confronts the supporting section and a second position at which the ejection surface is farther away from the supporting section than at the first position; wherein the predetermined axis is located at a position closer to the first side surface than to the second side surface, and extends in a direction in parallel with the first side surface; and wherein the second side surface is formed with: a first opening through which a first medium tray configured to accommodate a recording medium is inserted or removed; a second opening through which a first tank configured to store liquid supplied to the liquid ejecting head is inserted or removed; and a third opening through which a waste-liquid tank configured to store liquid ejected from the liquid ejecting head is inserted or removed.
