Abstract
A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a mode controller that controls execution of a first mode in which an operation of the liquid ejecting head is controlled under pressurization at first pressure by the pressurizing mechanism and depressurization at second pressure by the depressurizing mechanism and execution of a second mode in which the operation of the liquid ejecting head is controlled under pressurization at third pressure by the pressurizing mechanism and depressurization at fourth pressure by the depressurizing mechanism. To switch from the execution of the first mode to the execution of the second mode, the mode controller gradually changes, from the first pressure to the third pressure, pressure at which the pressurization operation is performed by the pressurizing mechanism, and gradually changes, from the second pressure to the fourth pressure, pressure at which the depressurization operation is performed by the depressurizing mechanism.
