A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejection head that reciprocates, a liquid supplying flow channel supplies a ink to the liquid ejection head, a non-return valve in the liquid supplying flow channel that opens when ink flows from an upstream region to a downstream region where the liquid ejection head is located and closes when ink flows from the downstream region to the upstream region, a volume changing unit that changes a volume of an inner space, and a stirring unit that stirs ink stored therein in accordance with the volume change of the volume changing unit, the stirring unit being disposed separately from the volume changing unit and they are disposed in the liquid supplying flow channel between the non-return valve and the liquid ejection head.
