1. A liquid ejecting head comprising:
a nozzle forming member that includes a nozzle row formed of a plurality of nozzles provided in a first direction; a pressure generating unit that includes a pressure chamber forming substrate in which a plurality of pressure chambers corresponding respectively to the plurality of nozzles are formed and a plurality of pressure generators that are provided so as to correspond respectively to the pressure chambers; a communication member in which a plurality of nozzle communication paths that allow communication between the pressure chambers and the respective nozzles, a plurality of common liquid chambers having a plurality of empty liquid chamber portions respectively, and a plurality of supply-side communication paths that allow communication between the empty liquid chamber portions and the pressure chambers are formed; and a case member to which the communication member and the pressure generating unit are bonded, wherein an empty accommodating portion that accommodates the pressure generating unit and a plurality of empty liquid chamber forming portions that communicate with the empty liquid chamber portions so as to define common liquid chambers are formed in the case member, wherein the empty liquid chamber forming portions are formed along the first direction at positions that are separated from the empty accommodating portion in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction by a partition wall of the case member, wherein the empty liquid chamber portions corresponding respectively to the empty liquid chamber forming portions are formed in the first direction, wherein the supply-side communication paths each include a common communication path that is formed in part by a first surface of a first portion, of the communication member opposite a second surface of the first portion which second surface is bonded to the case member, the first portion of the communication member having a dimension in a thickness direction of the communication member that is less than a dimension of a second portion of the communication member in the thickness direction, and wherein the empty liquid chamber forming portions and the empty liquid chamber portions communicate with each other so as to define the common liquid chambers independent of each other and formed in the first direction.
