A liquid supply device includes a first conduit, a second conduit, one or more pumps, a heater, a filter, and a bypass conduit. The first conduit is connected to an upstream side of a liquid discharge head. The second conduit is connected to a downstream side of the liquid discharge head. The liquid is supplied through the first conduit to the liquid discharge head and recovered from the liquid discharge head through the second conduit. The heater is provided along the first conduit. The filter is provided in the first conduit on a downstream side of the heater. The bypass conduit is connected between a portion of the first conduit upstream with respect to the filter and a portion of the second conduit.

A liquid ejecting apparatus has a liquid ejecting unit and a negative pressure regulating unit provided between passages connecting the tank to the liquid ejecting unit, regulates fluid pressure of liquid flowing into the liquid ejecting unit. The negative pressure regulating unit includes a negative pressure chamber whose internal pressure is regulated within a predetermined range, and a discharging passage for discharging liquid stored in the negative pressure chamber from the negative pressure regulating unit. The discharging passage has an outlet disposed in an upper portion of the negative pressure chamber in a direction of gravity, a bubble accumulation portion connected to the outlet and having a space above the outlet in the direction of gravity, and a passage guiding liquid flowing from the outlet to a discharging port opened in a bottom of the negative pressure regulating unit.

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.
