A liquid ejecting head is operable to move in a first direction. A platen is
opposed
to the liquid ejecting head to support an object to which a liquid droplet is ejected
from the liquid ejecting head and to define a gap between the liquid ejecting head
and the object. The platen is formed with a groove hole to which a liquid droplet
deviated from an edge of the object is disposed, and through holes formed in a
bottom portion of the groove hole and arranged in the first direction. A tray member
is arranged below the platen to receive liquid dropped through the through holes.
A first liquid absorber is provided in the groove hole. A second liquid absorber
is provided in the tray member. At least one liquid leading member extends through
at least one of the through holes to lead liquid absorbed by the first liquid absorber
to the second liquid absorber.
