Abstract
A liquid ejecting apparatus includes: a support portion including a support surface that supports a target; a liquid ejecting head that ejects a liquid onto the target supported by the support surface, from a position opposed to the support surface; a housing portion that includes the support portion in a wall portion opposed to the liquid ejecting head and that is formed in a location so that an air suction port that takes in air from the exterior is further from the liquid ejecting head than the support surface in a direction that is orthogonal to the support surface; and an air exhaust unit that exhausts air from the interior of the housing portion.
