There is provided a liquid ejecting head including: first and second nozzle rows extending in a first direction; a first supply flow path; a first filter chamber having a first inlet; and a second filter chamber having a second inlet, in which the first and second nozzle rows are shifted from each other in both the first direction and a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, the first supply flow path has a branch flow path for distributing the liquid between the first filter chamber and the second filter chamber at a branch position, the branch position is disposed between the first filter chamber and the second filter chamber in a plan view, and the first and second inlets are disposed at a part where the first filter chamber and the second filter chamber overlap each other when viewed in the second direction.

There is provided a liquid ejecting head which is long in a first direction and short in a second direction, including: a first introduction section; a second introduction section; a first filter chamber group having a first filter chamber and a second filter chamber; a second filter chamber group having a third filter chamber and a fourth filter chamber; a first supply flow path for supplying the liquid from the first introduction section to the first filter chamber group; and a second supply flow path for supplying the liquid from the second introduction section to the second filter chamber group, in which the first introduction section, the second introduction section, the first filter chamber group, and the second filter chamber group are arranged side by side in this order in the first direction.

In an example implementation, a printhead includes a die sliver molded into a molding. The die sliver includes a front surface exposed outside the molding and flush with the molding to dispense fluid, and a back surface exposed outside the molding and flush with the molding to receive fluid. Edges of the die sliver contact the molding to form a joint between the die sliver and the molding.

A printhead module includes: a monolithic substrate having alternate longitudinal slots and longitudinal ink supply channels defined through a thickness of the substrate and extending parallel with each other along a length of the substrate; and a plurality of rows of print chips mounted on a front face of the substrate, each row of print chips receiving ink only from a respective one of the ink supply channels. Each one of the longitudinal slots is configured to supply power and data only to a respective one of the rows of print chips.

A flow path structure includes: a substrate that includes a first surface and a second surface on a side opposite to the first surface; a supply port formed on the first surface; a plurality of discharge ports formed on the second surface; grooves that are formed on the first surface so as to extend in an X direction and communicate with the supply ports and with the plurality of discharge ports via through-holes formed on the substrate; and a sealing portion that is disposed on the first surface and seals each groove.

A printhead die assembly includes first and second printhead die. Each of the first and second die has a respective first surface including ink dispensing devices constructed thereon, and a respective second surface opposite the first surface. Each of the first and second die includes nozzles for the ink dispensing devices. The first and second die are positioned so that the second surface of the first die faces the second surface of the second die, and the nozzles of the first die are aligned with the nozzles of the second die.

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejecting unit that ejects a liquid supplied to an internal flow path; a pump that feeds the liquid to the liquid ejecting unit; a discharge route that communicates with the internal flow path; and a closing valve disposed in the discharge route. The closing valve has an object that is biased to close the discharge route, and the object open the discharge route, due to an external force, during feeding of the liquid by the pump.

There is provided a liquid ejecting unit that ejects liquid from a plurality of nozzles, in which the planar shape of the ejecting face on which the nozzles are formed is a shape in which a first portion that passes through the center line parallel to the long side of the rectangle of the minimum area including the ejecting face and a second portion that does not pass through the center line are arranged in the direction of the long side.

A flow-path structure configures an internal flow path for supply a liquid to a nozzle which ejects the liquid, and the flow-path structure includes a filter disposed across the internal flow path; a defoaming space that communicates with a defoaming route through which gases are discharged; and a first gas permeable membrane that is interposed between the defoaming space and a storage space positioned on a downstream side from the filter.

A printhead module includes a plurality of rows of printhead nozzles, at least some of the rows including at least one displaced row portion, the displacement of the row portion including a component in a direction normal to that of a pagewidth to be printed, wherein the displaced row portions of at least some of the rows are different in length than the displaced row portions of at least some of the other rows.
