Abstract: A liquid ejecting apparatus including a liquid ejecting portion that ejects a liquid, a liquid supply flow path that supplies the liquid accommodated in a liquid supply source to the liquid ejecting portion, a storage portion that is provided in the liquid supply flow path and that stores the liquid, a pressure mechanism that changes a volume of the storage portion by making pressure act thereon, a liquid filling mechanism that fills the liquid inside the liquid supply source into the liquid supply flow path, and a control portion that fills the liquid into the liquid supply flow path while the volume of the storage portion is, by making pressure act on the flexible portion, made smaller than when the pressure does not act on the flexible portion, and after the filling, ends a state in which the pressure is made to act on the flexible portion.

Abstract: A liquid reservoir unit includes a reservoir portion, an outflow portion disposed at a position near a first end of the reservoir portion, and an inflow portion disposed at a position near the first end of the reservoir portion. The outflow portion includes an outflow opening opened to an interior of the reservoir portion, and the inflow portion includes an inflow opening opened to the interior of the reservoir portion. The outflow opening and the inflow opening are located at different positions in a width direction which is a lengthwise direction of the reservoir portion when the reservoir portion is viewed from the first end, and also located at different positions in a depth direction from the first end toward a second end on the opposite side to the first end.

Abstract: A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid supply flow path configured to supply a liquid stored in a liquid supply source to a liquid ejecting portion, a reservoir portion provided in the liquid supply flow path, an on-off valve provided between the liquid supply source and the reservoir portion, a discharge mechanism configured to discharge the liquid in the liquid supply flow path by depressurizing the liquid supply flow path, and a pressure mechanism configured to apply a negative pressure to the interior of the reservoir portion from the exterior. A negative pressure equal to or larger than a negative pressure applied to the interior of the reservoir portion by the discharge mechanism, is applied to the interior of the reservoir portion in a maintenance operation in which the liquid supply flow path is depressurized by the discharge mechanism while the on-off valve is closed.
