Abstract

See full text

A printing apparatus is provided with an ink ejecting section which performs printing by ejecting an ink onto a printing medium and a mist processing device which processes an ink mist which is generated together with an ejection of the ink. The printing apparatus includes a gas-liquid separation section which separates the ink mist into a separated gas and a separated liquid using a centrifugal force generated by an airflow, an airflow generating section which is provided in an exhaust flow path which is joined to an exhaust side of the separated gas in the gas-liquid separation section and generates the airflow, and a liquid leakage detection section, which is provided beneath an exhaust port which is provided on a downstream end of the exhaust flow path, and is capable of detecting a liquid which is released from the exhaust port.
