A liquid ejecting apparatus according to the invention includes a liquid ejecting head capable of ejecting liquid from nozzle openings provided in a nozzle-forming surface, a nozzle-forming-surface visual-inspection unit for enabling a visual inspection of the nozzle-forming surface, and a liquid receptacle for receiving liquid discharged as waste liquid from the nozzle openings in the liquid ejecting head. The liquid receptacle is movable between a receiving position, where the liquid receptacle is positioned adjacent to the nozzle-forming surface, and a non-receiving position, where the liquid receptacle is positioned away from the receiving position. The liquid receptacle covers the nozzle-forming-surface visual-inspection unit when the liquid receptacle is positioned at the receiving position. The nozzle-forming-surface visual-inspection unit allows the nozzle-forming surface to be visually inspected when the liquid receptacle is positioned at the non-receiving position.
