Forming Method of Adjustment Pattern and Liquid Ejection Apparatus

A liquid ejection apparatus, comprising:

• (A) a transport section that transports a medium along a predetermined direction;
• (B) a plurality of nozzles that are arranged along the predetermined direction and that eject liquid onto the medium while moving relative to the medium;
• and
• (C) a controller that
• forms a first adjustment pattern on the medium by ejecting the liquid onto the medium from a part of the plurality of nozzles, and
• subsequently, after transporting the medium by the transport section, forms a second adjustment pattern on the medium by ejecting the liquid onto the medium from nozzles other than the part of the plurality of nozzles, the second adjustment pattern being lined up in a movement direction of the nozzles with respect to the first adjustment pattern.
