Abstract
A liquid ejection device has a feeding mechanism, a nozzle, an irradiating section, and a color meter. The feeding mechanism is configured and arranged to feed a medium in a feed direction. The nozzle is configured and arranged to eject a liquid to be cured by irradiation of light toward the medium. The irradiating section is configured and arranged to radiate the light toward the liquid landed on the medium. The color meter is disposed on a downstream side of the feed direction with respect to the irradiating section so as to perform color measurement of an image generated on the medium, the color meter being configured and arranged such that calibration of the color meter is performed by reading a reference. The irradiating section is configured and arranged to radiate the light when the calibration of the color meter is performed.
