摘要： A liquid discharging method is provided with heat generating elements for creating air bubbles for discharging liquid, discharge ports arranged corresponding to the heat generating elements, first liquid flow paths conductively connected with the discharge ports, second liquid flow paths arranged corresponding to the heat generating elements, and a separation wall to separate the first and second liquid flow paths. This separation wall is provided with the free end, which is caused to be displaced to the first liquid flow side by pressure exerted by air bubbles created by the heat generating elements, thus leading the pressure toward the discharge port side for discharging liquid from the discharge ports. For this liquid discharging method, liquids are supplied to the second liquid flow paths and to the first liquid flow paths from different sides, respectively, in order to stabilize the flow of liquid for the enhancement of the discharging efficiency and power, while reducing the influence of cavitation with respect to the heat generating elements to make the life thereof longer.

摘要： A Liquid ejecting method for ejecting liquid using a bubble, includes using a liquid ejecting head having an ejection outlet for ejecting the liquid, a bubble generating region where a bubble is generated in the liquid, a movable member which is disposed faced to the bubble generating region, and which is displaceable between a first position and a second position farther from the bubble generating region than the first position and which has a free end at a downstream side thereof; displacing the movable member from the first position to the second position by pressure based on generation of the bubble in the bubble generating region, wherein the bubble expands more to the downstream side than to the upstream side with respect to a direction toward the ejection outlet by the displacement of the movable member, thus directing the bubble toward the ejection outlet to eject the liquid through the ejection outlet; and imparting an operation to the liquid ejecting head to normalize a state of the liquid in a liquid flow path for the liquid at least before liquid ejection start or at the time of non-ejection of the liquid.
