Abstract

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a carriage that includes a liquid ejecting head, a liquid storing container that is capable of storing the liquid and that is provided at a different location from the carriage, a tube that supplies the liquid sent from the liquid storing container, and a guide section that is located at a lower side of the carriage in a vertical direction. When one of the moving directions of the carriage is a first direction and another one of the moving directions of the carriage is a second direction, the tube extends in the second direction along the guide section, and is connected to the carriage. The guide section includes a first site and a second site that is lower in the vertical direction than the first site.
