A liquid droplet ejection apparatus includes: a flow path unit including first and second pressure chambers for first and second liquids, respectively, and first and second nozzles communicating with the first and second pressure chambers, respectively, each of the first and second nozzles including a tip opening; and a pressure generating unit which generates a pressure for the liquids in the first and second pressure chambers to eject the liquids through the tip openings of the first and second nozzles. A diameter of the tip opening of the first nozzle is larger than that of the tip opening of the second nozzle and a length of the first nozzle is shorter than that of the second nozzle.
摘要:
There is provided a recording apparatus including: a head jetting liquid droplets from nozzles; and a controller controlling the head to perform a recording jetting-operation for jetting the liquid droplets toward a recording medium from the nozzles at each of drive periods, and a flushing operation for performing maintenance on the nozzles by jetting the liquid droplets from the nozzles prior to the recording jetting-operation. The controller controls the head so that with respect to each of the nozzles, a total liquid discharge amount in the flushing operation becomes less in a case of jetting a liquid droplet at a first drive period in the recording jetting-operation, in comparison with a case of not jetting the liquid droplet at the first drive period.
