Abstract

A method of manufacturing an ejection orifice member includes: preparing a substrate including a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer, the first layer protruding in a first direction crossing a principal surface of the substrate, the second and third layers being formed on the first direction side of the first layer, the preparing a substrate including forming the second layer to follow a contour of a first direction side surface of the first layer, and then forming the third layer on a surface of the second layer which protrudes on the first direction side; performing plating using the second layer as a seed to form a fourth layer on the first direction side of the second layer; removing the third layer from the fourth layer to form a hole as the ejection orifice in the fourth layer; and thinning the fourth layer at least around the hole.
