A liquid discharging device includes a line head having a plurality of discharge ports for discharging liquid, the discharge ports being arranged substantially in lines in a discharge surface; a head cap facing the line head, for closing the discharge ports; and a lift mechanism for lifting or lowering the head cap. The head cap closes the discharge ports by being lifted with the lift mechanism substantially perpendicularly to the discharge surface. Also, the head cap comes away from the discharge surface by being lowered with the lift mechanism substantially perpendicularly to the discharge surface to allow a recording medium to be carried between the head cap and the discharge surface.
