Abstract:
A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejecting unit having nozzles able to eject a first liquid to a medium; and a fluid ejecting device having ejection ports able to eject a fluid including a second liquid to the liquid ejecting unit, in which the fluid ejecting device performs, as a maintenance operation of the liquid ejecting unit, a first fluid ejection of ejecting a fluid including small droplets of the second liquid that are smaller than a nozzle opening to an opening region in which the nozzles of the liquid ejecting unit open, and a second fluid ejection of ejecting a fluid including droplets of the second liquid in which the smallest droplets are larger than the small droplets to the liquid ejecting unit.

Claim (Index 1):
A liquid ejecting apparatus, comprising:\n a liquid ejecting unit having a liquid ejecting surface that includes an opening region, the opening region having a nozzle opening designed to eject a first liquid to a medium on a support member; and a fluid ejecting device having an ejection port designed to eject a fluid including a second liquid to the liquid ejecting unit, the fluid ejecting device performing a fluid ejection of ejecting the fluid from the ejection port toward the liquid ejecting unit as a maintenance operation of the liquid ejecting unit, wherein, in a case where a direction in which the first liquid is ejected from the liquid ejecting unit is an ejection direction, a distance between the ejection port of the fluid ejecting device and the liquid ejecting unit in the ejection direction is longer than a distance between the liquid ejecting surface of the liquid ejecting unit and the medium on the support member in the ejection direction.
