Liquid ejecting apparatus and liquid ejecting method

A liquid ejecting apparatus comprising:

• a pressure chamber that communicates with a liquid supply section and a nozzle;
• an element that changes a pressure of liquid within the pressure chamber;
• and
• an ejection pulse generation section that generates an ejection pulse for operating the element in order to eject the liquid from the nozzle;
• wherein a viscosity of the liquid is not less than 8 millipascal seconds;
• wherein the nozzle comprises:
• a first, tapered portion comprising a first, smaller cross-sectional area at a first, liquid ejection end and a second, larger cross-sectional area at a second, pressure chamber end;
• and
• a second portion which communicates with the first end of the first portion, comprising a length in a liquid ejection direction and a width in a cross-sectional direction, wherein the length is smaller than the width;
• and
• wherein the ejection pulse comprises:
• a depressurizing portion for depressurizing the liquid in order to attract a meniscus positioned on the second portion to the first portion, and
• a pressurizing portion for pressurizing the liquid in order to eject the liquid before the meniscus attracted to the first portion returns to the second portion.
