A liquid ejection apparatus includes: a liquid ejection head having a nozzle, wherein the liquid ejection head can eject a liquid from the nozzle and is movable in a predetermined direction; a first controller that controls, based on input data, liquid ejection of the liquid ejection head from the nozzle and movement of the liquid ejection head in the predetermined direction to apply the liquid onto an ejection area of a medium; a second controller that controls a flushing operation by moving the liquid ejection head to a flushing area outside the ejection area in the predetermined direction and ejecting the liquid from the nozzle of the liquid ejection head to the flushing area; a third controller that controls a minute vibration operation by vibrating the liquid in the nozzle to such an extent as not to eject the liquid from the nozzle; and a fourth controller that obtains information regarding the ejection area in the predetermined direction and that selectively controls the second controller and the third controller based on the obtained information to execute one of the flushing operation and the minute vibration operation. |
