According to the present invention, there is disclosed a capping device for an ink jet printer which is constructed such that a cap supporting member 14, adapted to move from the non-capping position to the capping position by the thrust action of a carriage 3, is arranged on the home position side of the ink jet printer so that the outer end part of the cap supporting member 14 is displaced toward the nozzle surface of a printing head 4 with the aid of a guide surface 15b having an inclined surface 15a, until a cap 5 on the cap supporting member 14 is brought into close contact with the nozzle surface of the printing head 4 with an adequate intensity of thrust force by means of a turnable lever 8 operatively connected to the inner end of the cap supporting member 14, while resilient force of a cap spring 11 is exerted on the base end part of the turnable lever 8 so as to normally bias the cap supporting member 14 in the direction toward the printing head 4.

A fluid ejecting apparatus includes a drum that rotates while holding a medium on its outer periphery, a head that ejects a fluid on to the medium held on the periphery of the drum, a fixing section that fixes the fluid ejected on to the medium by the head, a measuring section that measures a diameter of the drum, and a controller that varies an ejection timing of the fluid ejected from the head in accordance with variation in the diameter of the drum measured by the measuring section.

A printing apparatus includes a head which discharges color inks and into which clear ink that prevents the head from being clogged and white ink are selectively filled. A selection portion communicates either of a white or a clear ink container with the head. A controller executes a first switching from a second filled state where the head is filled with clear ink to a first filled state where the head is filled with white ink by shifting from a state where the clear ink container is communicated with the head to a state where the white ink container is communicated with the head. A second switching is executed from the first filled state to the second filled state by shifting from a state where the white ink container is communicated with the head to a state where the clear ink container is communicated with the head.

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes: a common liquid chamber which is common to each pressure chamber and stores ink, a first pressure chamber and a second pressure chamber which communicate with the common liquid chamber, a first nozzle which communicates with the first pressure chamber and a second nozzle which communicates with the second pressure chamber, a first piezoelectric vibrator which causes pressure fluctuation in ink in the first pressure chamber and a second piezoelectric vibrator which causes pressure fluctuation in ink in the second pressure chamber, and a communication flow path which makes the first pressure chamber and the second pressure chamber communicate with each other, wherein the flow of ink is generated in the communication flow path by driving the first piezoelectric vibrator and the second piezoelectric vibrator.

A mist collecting apparatus which sucks and collects mist that is generated due to ejection of a liquid includes: an exhaust duct from which a suction unit for sucking outside air extends downward; and a liquid absorbing member which is mounted to the suction unit so that a lower end portion thereof is disposed on an outside of the exhaust duct and an upper end portion thereof is disposed in the exhaust duct, wherein a suction pressure of the liquid absorbing member on a liquid by capillary force is equal to or greater than a difference between hydraulic heads of an upper and a lower end of the liquid absorbing member.

A fluid ejecting apparatus includes a nozzle that ejects fluid; a transporting section that transports in a direction of transportation a medium on which the fluid lands; and a mist sucking section that sucks air including a mist portion when the nozzle ejects the fluid, so as to move the mist portion from a route that extends from the nozzle to the spot on the medium where the fluid lands. The mist portion is a portion of mist, which is part of the fluid ejected by the nozzle that does not land on the medium and is floating.

A recording apparatus includes a support drum which rotates while supporting a recording medium on a support surface thereof. A guide shaft of the recording apparatus is spaced apart from the support surface by a predetermined distance and extends in parallel to a direction perpendicular to a rotation direction of the support drum. A carriage which is guided by the guide shaft is reciprocally moved along the support surface. A recording head mounted on the carriage ejects an ultraviolet curing ink toward the recording medium. An ultraviolet ray irradiation unit irradiates ultraviolet rays to the ultraviolet curing inks which are ejected from the recording head. In operation, the carriage is moved along the guide shaft so as to form an image formed by the ultraviolet curing ink and a coat ink over the overall surface of the recording medium supported by the support drum.
