Abstract

A liquid supplying device includes a first intermediate storage and a second intermediate storage, both of which can supply liquid to a liquid ejecting unit. In a case where a storage amount of one intermediate storage is a first set value, the depressurization of the inside of one intermediate storage is stopped. In a case where a storage amount of the other intermediate storage is a second set value that is smaller than the first set value, first supply control of supplying the liquid from one intermediate storage to the other liquid ejecting unit is performed. In a case where the storage amount of the other intermediate storage is the second set value, second supply control of supplying the liquid from one intermediate storage is performed.
