Abstract
A first frame holds a platen. A second frame holds a head. When the second frame is at a first position, the head faces the platen. When the second frame is at a second position, the second frame is positioned farther away from the first frame than when the second frame is at the first position. At the second position, the head is positioned farther away from the platen than when the second frame is at the first position. A head lifter is held by the second frame. At the first position, the head lifter moves the head with respect to the second frame between a printing position and a separate position. At the printing position, the head ejects liquid toward a medium supported by the platen. At the separate position, the head is farther away from the platen in an intersecting direction than at the printing position.
