A liquid ejecting apparatus includes an ejecting head through which liquid is ejected. A supply passage connects the ejecting head to a plurality of liquid storage bodies that include a first liquid storage body to be used first and a second liquid storage body to be used following the use of the first liquid storage body. A supply mechanism discharges the liquid contained in the liquid storage bodies to the supply passage. When the supply mechanism discharges the liquid contained in the first liquid storage body to the supply passage on the basis of first energy, if the amount of liquid left in the first liquid storage body is smaller than a threshold amount, the supply mechanism discharges the liquid contained in the second liquid storage body to the supply passage on the basis of second energy, which is lower than the first energy.
A liquid ejecting apparatus comprising:
A liquid supply method of supplying liquid from a plurality of liquid storage bodies, the liquid storage bodies including a first liquid storage body to be used first and a second liquid storage body to be used following the use of the first liquid storage body, the liquid supply method comprising:
