In a support member that is disposed to face a liquid emitting head and supports a medium, in a first region through which an edge of a first medium in a medium width direction passes, a liquid receiving portion is provided which receives a liquid emitted on a region deviated from the edge of the first medium in the medium width direction, and in a second region as a region through which an edge of a second medium in which a size thereof in the medium width direction is larger than that of the first medium passes, an absorbing material disposing portion at which a liquid absorbing material which absorbs the liquid guided from the liquid receiving portion is disposed to be capable of being exposed from an upper side of the support member is provided.

A liquid ejecting device on which a waste liquid storage unit is mounted includes an ejecting unit that ejects a liquid, a maintenance unit and a collecting unit. The maintenance unit includes a receiving unit and a wiping unit that wipes a nozzle surface in which a nozzle is open, by moving together with the receiving unit in one direction. The receiving unit includes a receiver including a receiving tank that receives the liquid discharged from the nozzle, and a receiving gutter in which a discharging hole for dropping the liquid received by the receiving tank onto the collecting unit is open.

The collecting unit includes a discharging gutter that directs the liquid dropped through the discharging hole to the waste liquid storage unit, and the discharging gutter extends in the one direction and overlaps with at least a part of the receiver as viewed in a vertical direction.

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 printer includes a medium transporter configured to feed out a medium in a rolled shape and transport the medium in a first direction; a head provided movably in a second direction and configured to eject droplets for image-forming downward along a vertical direction toward the medium which is transported; a receiver provided below a region of the medium facing the head along the vertical direction, and configured to receive the droplets ejected onto the medium from the head and having passed through the medium downward along the vertical direction; and a support member configured switchably arranged at a supporting position arranged between the medium and the receiver along the vertical direction and a retracted position that is retracted from the supporting position, and configured capable of supporting the medium in a state of being arranged at the supporting position.

A printing apparatus includes a suction unit configured to allow a negative pressure, by which a sheet is sucked to a supporting portion, to act on the sheet; and ink receivers configured to receive ink ejected outside of the sheet. Waste ink ejected to the ink receivers is guided to a waste ink discharge port formed on an outer peripheral wall of a platen through waste ink channels. A sheet sucking mechanism configured to apply the negative pressure is disposed adjacent to the suction unit. A discharging mechanism configured to forcibly discharge waste ink outside of the platen is connected to the waste ink discharge port.

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejecting head which ejects a liquid, a discharge portion which discharges a waste liquid discharged from the liquid ejecting head, and a mounting unit which is provided with the discharge portion and in which is mounted a waste liquid container capable of storing the waste liquid which is discharged from the discharge portion, in which the mounting unit includes a liquid holding portion capable of holding the waste liquid in a periphery of the discharge portion.

Provided is a storage device including a container that includes an accommodation chamber accommodating fluid or powder, a flexible film that is bonded to the container and covers an opening portion of the accommodation chamber, and a tank holder to which the container having the film bonded thereto is fixed by a screw, in which the screw penetrates the film and fixes the container to the tank holder, and a part of a bonded portion between the film and the container surrounds a portion of the film through which the screw penetrates.

A platen includes: a supporting portion that can support a sheet; a suction unit that sucks the sheet in such a manner as to attach the sheet to the supporting portion; a first ink receiver that receives ink ejected downstream of the leading end of the sheet passing the supporting portion; and a second ink receiver that receives ink ejected upstream of the trailing end of the sheet passing the supporting portion.

A recording apparatus includes a transportation belt, a washing portion that washes the transportation belt, and a selection unit. The selection unit selects a transportation mode for transporting the recorded medium from among a washing transportation mode in which the transportation belt is transported while being washed by the washing portion, and a non-washing transportation mode in which the transportation belt is transported without being washed by the washing portion. The selection unit selects the transportation mode in accordance with a recording mode. The selection unit selects, as a transportation mode for use in transporting the recorded medium along with no recording operation after a recording operation onto the recorded medium has been brought to a halt, the washing transportation mode or the non-washing transportation mode, whichever has been selected in the recording operation having been brought to a halt.
