A liquid consuming apparatus includes: a liquid consumer that consumes liquid; a liquid receiver that receives the liquid discharged from the liquid consumer; a first waste-liquid storage connected to the liquid receiver so as to allow communication of the liquid therebetween; a second waste-liquid storage connected to the first waste-liquid storage so as to allow communication of the liquid therebetween; a housing; and a sheet tray supported by the housing. The first waste-liquid storage is disposed on a side of the sheet tray. The second waste-liquid storage is disposed under the sheet tray.

A printing apparatus includes a supporting member, a printing section, an image capturing section, and a receiver. The supporting member is configured to support a continuous form. The printing section is configured to cause ink to adhere to the continuous form supported by the supporting member, thus performing printing. The image capturing section is disposed in the supporting member, with a gap between the image capturing section and the supporting member. The image capturing section is configured to capture an image of the continuous form. The receiver is configured to receive ink. The receiver is disposed below the gap.

A liquid ejecting device includes: a liquid ejecting unit configured to eject a liquid onto a medium; a supporting portion disposed at a position that is opposed to the liquid ejecting unit to support the medium, the supporting portion including a first discharging hole through which the liquid is discharged downward; a liquid receiving section disposed lower than the supporting portion and configured to receive the liquid discharged from the first discharging hole; and a device body including the liquid ejecting unit, the supporting portion, and the liquid receiving section. When the device body is tilted from a first posture by a first angle, the liquid receiving section maintains its horizontality.

An inkjet recording apparatus includes an ink collection tray and a cleaning liquid feeding mechanism. When recovery operation for a recording head that ejects ink onto a recording medium is performed, the ink collection tray is disposed opposite the recording head to collect ink pushed out onto the ink ejection surface of the recording head. The cleaning liquid feeding mechanism feeds a cleaning liquid for flushing off the ink onto the ink collection tray. The ink collection tray has a waste ink catching portion disposed opposite the ink ejection surface and a waste ink discharge portion disposed adjacent to the waste ink catching portion, and has a downward slope from the waste ink catching portion toward the waste ink discharge portion. The waste ink catching portion has formed in it a plurality of grooves with a V-shaped cross section extending along the downward slope.

An inkjet recording device (100) comprises a recording head (40) for recording an image on a recording medium(S) that is being transported, a control unit (6) for controlling flushing processing for discharging ink at a timing different from the timing of the image recording, and a storage unit (7) for storing flushing ink discharged during execution of the flushing processing, wherein the storage unit (7) is detachably fitted to a fitting region (7A), which is a region opposing the recording head (40) across a transport pathway of the recording medium(S).

A printing apparatus includes a liquid ejection unit that ejects liquid to perform printing, a liquid accommodation unit, and a control unit. The liquid accommodation unit includes an accommodation member that accommodates a liquid ejected by the liquid ejection unit in flushing, a feeding unit, and a winding unit. When a start signal for a print job is received, the control unit acquires an available amount of accommodation member that can be used and a predicted usage amount of the accommodation member predicted to be used in the print job when the accommodation member is fed by a reference feed amount per unit. When the available amount is smaller than the predicted usage amount, the control unit performs an extension operation of executing the print job by changing the reference feed amount per unit to a feed amount per unit smaller than the reference feed amount.

A liquid ejecting device according to the present disclosure includes a liquid ejecting section configured to eject a liquid to a medium, and a liquid receiving section disposed at a position facing the liquid ejecting section with the medium being interposed between the liquid receiving section and the liquid ejecting section, and configured to receive the liquid. The liquid ejecting section includes an ink head configured to eject pigment ink, and also includes a treatment solution head configured to eject a treatment solution. The liquid receiving section includes a bottom and a side surface portion. The side surface portion is provided at both end portions along a longitudinal direction of the bottom so as to extend toward an upper side, and a side surface portion is not provided at both end portions along a short-length direction of the bottom.

A liquid ejecting device according to the present disclosure includes a liquid ejecting section configured to eject a liquid to a medium, and a liquid receiving section disposed at a position facing the liquid ejecting section across the medium, and configured to receive the liquid. The liquid receiving section includes a side surface portion rising upward from a bottom, and also includes a marker provided at an inner surface of the side surface portion.

An inkjet recording apparatus includes a recording head, a conveyance belt, a control portion, an ink collector, and a suction portion. The ink collector includes a plurality of ink receivers that receives ink that has passed through openings of the conveyance belt during execution of flushing and a suction path leading from each of the ink receivers to the suction portion. The suction path includes a plurality of first flow paths each connected to each of the plurality of ink receivers, a merging chamber in which the plurality of first flow paths merges together and that is linked to the suction portion, and ink separation walls that are provided in the merging chamber and are impinged on by airflows that have passed through the first flow paths so that the ink contained in the airflows is separated from the airflows.

A liquid discharging apparatus, having a main housing, a liquid discharging head with nozzles, a container to store a printable medium, a waste liquid storage located at a position to at least partly overlap the container and lower than the container in a vertical direction, a mountable compartment, in which the waste liquid storage is demountably mountable, is provided. The mountable compartment is formed on a sideward face of the main housing on one side in a widthwise direction being a scanning direction of the liquid discharging head. The mountable compartment is open at a position frontward with respect to a connector, which connects a power cord for receiving external power supply to the main housing there-through, in a front-rear direction being a conveying direction to convey the printable medium and toward which the printable medium is ejected from the main housing.
