Abstract: A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejecting head that ejects a liquid accommodated in a liquid container, a detection unit that detects a remaining amount of the liquid accommodated in the liquid container, and a control unit that operates in a normal mode and a special mode. In the normal mode, the control unit prohibits ejection of the liquid from the liquid ejecting head when the detection unit has detected that the remaining amount of the liquid accommodated in the liquid container has become smaller than a predetermined threshold value. In the second mode, the control unit allows ejection of the liquid from the liquid ejecting head with an instruction from a user as a requirement when the detection unit has detected that the remaining amount of the liquid accommodated in the liquid container has become smaller than the predetermined threshold value.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a placement portion on which a medium is placed, a feeding portion that feeds the medium that is placed on the placement portion, a recording portion that has a liquid discharge portion that discharges liquid onto the medium that is fed by the feeding portion, a processing portion that executes pre-processing of the liquid discharge portion, and a control portion that performs control of the feeding portion and the processing portion or control of the feeding portion and the recording portion such that feeding of the medium and pre-processing are performed in parallel in a case where a recording start command is received in a state in which the processing portion faces the liquid discharge portion.

Abstract: A liquid ejecting apparatus includes: a wiping portion which wipes a nozzle forming surface by relatively moving in a main scanning direction with respect to a recording head; and a controller which moves at least one of the recording head and the wiping member. The controller selects and performs at least one of first wiping processing for wiping the nozzle forming surface until the wiping portion is separated from the nozzle forming surface in the main scanning direction, and second wiping processing for separating the wiping portion from the nozzle forming surface in a retracting direction different from the main scanning direction after wiping the nozzle forming surface until the wiping portion comes into contact with a defined position of the nozzle forming surface.
