<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid supply apparatus that can suppress liquid from leaking from a liquid supply flow path with a liquid supply source being detached, and to provide a liquid ejecting apparatus. <P>SOLUTION: The liquid ejecting apparatus includes: an ink flow path 15 that supplies ink from upstream, which is a side of an ink cartridge 13 that is attachably and detachably mounted to downstream where the ink is consumed; a pump 43 that performs pump drive using part of the ink flow path 15 as a pump chamber; an encoder 65 that detects a displacement motion of an opening and closing door 63, the motion is being conducted prior to an detachment operation of the ink cartridge 13; and a control device 62 that allows the pump 43 to perform a suction operation so as to increase the volume of the pump chamber when the encoder 65 detects the displacement motion of the opening and closing door 63. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT</p> |
