Abstract: A liquid ejection head unit is formed by arranging a plurality of recording element substrates in a first direction. Each recording element substrate has an ejection orifice from which a liquid is ejected. The liquid ejection head unit includes rail portions extending in the first direction and a protective member which is detachably fitted on the rail portions. The protective member is movable along the rail portions between a first position and a second position. The first position allows the protective member to cover whole surfaces of the plurality of recording element substrates. The second position allows the plurality of recording element substrates to be exposed so as to allow a liquid to be ejected from the ejection orifices.
