<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid supply device and a liquid ejector which hardly cause variation in concentration of liquid to be ejected. <P>SOLUTION: The liquid supply device includes: a main tank 6 configured to store ink; a printing head 4; a sub tank 40 connected to the main tank 6 and the printing head 4 through ink supply tubes 7A and 7B and configured to store the ink supplied from the main tank 6, the sub tank 40 from which the stored ink is supplied to the printing head 4; a carriage moving mechanism 3 reciprocating a carriage 11 on which the printing head 4 and the sub tank 40 are mounted; and a stirring ball 31 housed in the sub tank 40 and capable of reciprocating along in the reciprocating direction of the carriage 11. The carriage moving mechanism 3 performs stirring drive that the stirring ball 31 can move relatively to the sub tank 40, in deceleration when reversing the reciprocating direction of the carriage 11. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
