Abstract
A liquid discharging apparatus includes a first discharge section that discharges a metallic ink, a second discharge section that discharges a pigment ink, a detection section that detects residual vibrations that occur in the first discharge section, and outputs a first detection signal, which shows a corresponding detection result, and detects residual vibrations that occur in the second discharge section, and outputs a second detection signal, which shows a corresponding detection result, and a determination section that executes a first determination, which determines whether or not the first detection signal satisfies first conditions, which should be satisfied in a case in which a discharge state of the first discharge section is normal, and executes a second determination, which determines whether or not the second detection signal satisfies second conditions, which should be satisfied in a case in which a discharge state of the second discharge section is normal.
