Liquid ejection apparatus

A liquid ejection apparatus, comprising:

• a liquid ejection head, operable to eject a liquid droplet toward a target position;
• a transporter, which transports a first target medium toward the target position in a first direction;
• a guide member, having a guide face along which a tray member on which a second target medium is mounted is fed toward the target position in a second direction which is opposite to the first direction, the guide member being pivotable between a first position for closing the guide face and a second position for opening the guide face to support the tray member;
• a sensor, which detects that the guide member is placed in either one of the first position and the second position;
• and
• a controller, which causes the transporter to transport the first target medium to the target position and causes the liquid ejection head to perform the liquid ejection when the apparatus receives data for a liquid ejection with respect to the second target medium, under a condition that the sensor detects that the guide member is placed in the first position.

A liquid ejection apparatus, comprising:

• a liquid ejection head, operable to eject a liquid droplet toward a target position;
• a transporter, which transports a first target medium toward the target position in a first direction;
• a feeder, which feeds the first target medium to the transporter in the first direction;
• a guide member, having a guide face along which a tray member on which a second target medium is mounted is fed toward the target position in a second direction which is opposite to the first direction, the guide member being pivotable between a first position for closing the guide face and a second position for opening the guide face to support the tray member;
• a first sensor, which detects that the guide member is placed in either one of the first position and the second position;
• a second sensor, which detects whether the tray member is placed on the guide face;
• a third sensor, which detects whether the feeder feeds the first target medium to the transporter;
• a manual switch;
• a display operable to indicate a message causing a user to place the tray member on the guide face;
• and
• a controller, which causes the display to indicate the message when the apparatus receives data for a liquid ejection with respect to the second target medium, under the following conditions are satisfied:
• the first sensor detects that the first sensor detects that the guide member is placed in the second position;
• the second sensor detects that the tray member is not placed on the guide face;
• and
• the third sensor detects that the second sensor detects that the first target medium is not fed by the feeder,
• wherein the controller causes the liquid ejection head to perform the liquid ejection with respect to the second target medium, when the following conditions are satisfied, after the message is indicated:
• the second sensor detects that the tray member is placed on the guide face;
• and
• the manual switch is actuated.

• a transporter, which transports a first target medium toward the target position in a first direction;
• a feeder, which feeds the first target medium to the transporter in the first direction;
• an ejector, operable to eject the tray member to the outside of the apparatus in the first direction;
• a guide member, having a guide face along which a tray member on which a second target medium is mounted is fed toward the target position in a second direction which is opposite to the first direction, the guide member being pivotable between a first position for closing the guide face and a second position for opening the guide face to support the tray member;
• a first sensor, which detects that the guide member is placed in either one of the first position and the second position;
• a second sensor, which detects whether the tray member is placed on the guide face;
• and a manual switch;
• a display operable to indicate a message causing a user to place the tray member on the guide face;
• and
• a controller, which causes the ejector to eject the tray member when the apparatus is in a standby state, under the following conditions are satisfied:
• the first sensor detects that the guide member is placed in the second position;
• and
• the second sensor detects that the tray member is placed on the guide face, wherein the controller causes the display to indicate the message after the standby state is terminated, and causes the liquid ejection head to perform the liquid ejection with respect to the second target medium, when the following conditions are satisfied, after the message is indicated:
• the second sensor detects that the tray member is placed on the guide face;
• and
• the manual switch is actuated.
