In the printer, after ink is discharged from nozzle openings by making a closed space area, formed by bringing a cap into contact with a recording head, enter into a negative pressure state due to negative pressure accumulated in a discharge flow path by driving a pump, when making the negative pressure state of the closed space area be subjected to a pressure change in a direction of coming to an atmospheric pressure state, after the air flows into the closed space area by making a second opening and closing valve provided at an inflow flow path which makes the closed space area and an aerial space communicate with each other be in an opened state, the inflow of the air into the closed space area through the inflow flow path is stopped in a state where negative pressure remains in the closed space area.

A region of the predetermined portion of the medium-to-be-ejected supporting unit in the second direction has a position corresponding to at least one lateral end of the medium to be ejected in the second direction, and extends towards the inside and outside of the medium to be ejected from the position. The at least one lateral end of the medium to be ejected in the second direction is configured such that a line connecting a terminal end position of the predetermined portion of the medium-to-be-ejected supporting unit which is further inside than an end portion of the medium to be ejected, and a terminal end position of the predetermined portion of the liquid ejecting unit which is further outside than the end portion of the medium to be ejected, intersects with the medium to be ejected.
