LIQUID EJECTION RECORDING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MAINTENANCE THEREOF

摘要

In a liquid ejection recording apparatus including a recording head capable of ejecting liquid and a cap capable of coming into contact with an ejection-port-formed surface, the recording head is caused to eject liquid from the recording head on to at least part (cap ribs) of the cap which comes into contact with the ejection-port-formed surface before bringing the cap into contact with the ejection-port-formed surface of the recording head.
