Liquid droplet ejecting apparatus

A liquid droplet ejecting apparatus comprising:

• a transport unit configured to transport a medium in a transport direction;
• a support configured to support the medium transported by the transport unit;
• a liquid droplet ejecting portion configured to eject liquid droplets to the medium supported by the support;
• a carriage configured to reciprocate in a scanning direction intersecting the transport direction while holding the liquid droplet ejecting portion;
• and
• an air flow generator configured to create an air flow in an area over the support, wherein
• a direction in which the liquid droplets are ejected from the liquid droplet ejecting portion travel is an ejection direction, and
• the air flow generator limits creation of the air flow when the liquid droplet ejecting portion faces the medium in the ejection direction and allows the creation of the air flow when the liquid droplet ejecting portion does not face the medium in the ejection direction, due to movement of the carriage in the scanning direction.
