Abstract
According to an embodiment, a liquid ejection head includes a plurality of drive flow paths, a plurality of dummy flow paths, and a plurality of side walls. The drive flow paths connect to liquid ejection nozzles. The dummy flow paths connect to dummy nozzles. The dummy flow paths are adjacent the drive flow paths. The side walls are between the drive flow paths and the dummy flow paths and configured to change volumes of both the drive flow paths and the dummy flow paths in response to drive signals. An acoustic resonance period of liquid in the dummy flow paths is shorter than an acoustic resonance period of the liquid in the drive flow paths.
