Liquid ejection apparatus

A liquid ejection apparatus, comprising:

• a conveyor configured to convey a recording medium along a conveyance path;
• and
• an ejector including a plurality of ejection openings from which a liquid is ejected to a front surface of the recording medium conveyed by the conveyor;
• wherein the conveyor includes an upstream roller pair disposed upstream of the ejector on the conveyance path, a first downstream roller pair disposed downstream of the ejector on the conveyance path, and a second downstream roller pair disposed downstream of the first downstream roller pair on the conveyance path, the conveyor being configured to convey the recording medium such that respective central positions of the upstream roller pair, the first downstream roller pair, and the second downstream roller pair in a first direction coincide with a central position of the recording medium in the first direction, the first direction being parallel to an axial direction of each of rollers of the upstream roller pair, the first downstream roller pair, and the second downstream roller pair,
• wherein each of the upstream roller pair, the first downstream roller pair, and the second downstream roller pair includes an upper roller which is to contact a front surface of the recording medium and a lower roller which is to contact a back surface of the recording medium opposite to the front surface, at least one of the upper roller and the lower roller being configured to give a conveyance force to the recording medium while the upper roller and the lower roller nip the recording medium therebetween, so as to convey the recording medium,
• wherein a rotation speed of the second downstream roller pair is higher than a rotation speed of the first downstream roller pair, and the conveyance force of the first downstream roller pair is larger than the conveyance force of the second downstream roller pair, and
• wherein the conveyance force of the second downstream roller pair is largest at a position of the second downstream roller pair in the first direction which is nearest to the central position of the second downstream roller pair.
