A droplet ejecting device includes: a droplet ejecting head having a nozzle surface at which plural nozzles that eject droplets are formed; an applying member applying a cleaning liquid to the nozzle surface; a wiping member disposed so as to be spaced apart from the applying member, and moving relative to the nozzle surface while contacting the nozzle surface, and wiping-off the cleaning liquid applied to the nozzle surface; and a unit for moving that moves both the droplet ejecting head, and the applying member and the wiping member, relative to one another.
