Abstract

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a platen disposed with a gap from a nozzle plate of a recording head and supporting a recording medium in ejecting, and an platen application voltage generating unit generating an electric field having a direction different from an electric field generated between an individual external electrode of a piezoelectric vibrator and nozzles, between the nozzle plate and the platen, in which the intensity of the electric field generated by the applied-to-plate voltage generating unit is set in between the maximum electric field intensity and the minimum electric field intensity between the individual external electrode and the nozzles.
