Method of driving liquid ejecting apparatus, and liquid ejecting apparatus

A method of driving a liquid ejecting apparatus including

• an ejection section including a nozzle from which a droplet is ejected, a pressure chamber communicating with the nozzle, and a drive element that is configured to be driven to change pressure applied to liquid in the pressure chamber according to a supplied drive signal, and
• a drive signal generating circuit that is configured to generate the drive signal, wherein
• the drive signal includes at least one ejection pulse in a drive period,
• the at least one ejection pulse includes
• an ejection waveform element that changes an electrical potential to change the pressure applied to the liquid in the pressure chamber such that a droplet is ejected from the nozzle, and
• a residual vibration suppression element that changes an electrical potential to reduce the change in the pressure applied to the liquid in the pressure chamber, the change in the pressure remaining after the ejection of the droplet from the nozzle according to a natural vibration period of the ejection section,
• the method comprising adjusting the residual vibration suppression element of the at least one ejection pulse to correct a weight of droplets that are continuously ejected from the nozzle when the drive signal is supplied to the drive element over a period corresponding to two or more drive periods.
