Abstract:
A liquid droplet ejecting apparatus includes a liquid droplet ejecting head that includes a plurality of nozzles from which a liquid supplied from a liquid supply source through a liquid supply path is ejected as a liquid droplet, and ejects the liquid droplet from the nozzle to a recording medium to perform a recording process, a first detecting section that detects a vibration waveform of the pressure chamber, which is vibrated when an actuator is driven to cause the pressure chamber communicating with the nozzle to vibrate, to detect a state inside the pressure chamber, and a second detecting section that reads a pattern formed on the recording medium by ejecting the liquid droplet from the nozzle to detect an ejection state of the liquid droplet.

Claim (Index 5):
The liquid droplet ejecting apparatus according to  claim 4 ,\n wherein the first detecting section detects the vibration waveform of the pressure chamber before the maintenance operation and detects the vibration waveform of the pressure chamber at a time of at least one of during the maintenance operation and after the maintenance operation, and wherein the determination section determines that at least one of the function unit and the maintenance unit malfunctions in a case in which bubbles inside the pressure chamber are determined to be increased through the maintenance operation based on the vibration waveform detected by the first detecting section.
