• the reception portion includes a communication path that guides the received waste liquid to the waste liquid flow path, and
• the communication path is provided at a lower portion of the reception portion;
• a second waste liquid flow path through which the waste liquid flows when the waste liquid flow path is defined as a first waste liquid flow path and the communication path is defined as a first communication path, wherein
• the maintenance portion includes a cap portion,
• the cap portion includes a cap member configured to form a space in which the nozzle is open,
• the cap member has an opening portion being open in a direction opposite to the discharge direction and is configured to form the space in which the nozzle is open by the opening portion coming into contact with the liquid discharge portion,
• the reception portion includes a second communication path that guides the received waste liquid to the second waste liquid flow path,
• the second communication path is provided at the lower portion of the reception portion,
• the first waste liquid flow path and the first communication path are provided on one side with respect to a center of the cap portion in a width direction intersecting with the discharge direction, and
• the second waste liquid flow path and the second communication path are provided on another side with respect to the center of the cap portion in the width direction.
