Liquid ejecting apparatus

摘要

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a first liquid containing unit containing a liquid therein and a second detachable liquid containing unit containing a liquid therein and having a liquid containing volume smaller than that of the first liquid containing unit. A communication passage communicates the first liquid containing unit with the second liquid containing unit. The first and second liquid containing units are reciprocally replenished with the liquid by a liquid replenishing unit through the communication passage. When the liquid is replenished from the first or second liquid containing units to the other, a control unit controls the liquid replenishing unit to replenish the liquid from the one liquid containing unit to the other liquid containing unit, until the liquid contained in the one liquid containing unit reaches a predetermined amount smaller than the liquid containing volume of the second liquid containing unit.
