Printer

A printer includes a supporting table to support a recording medium, a recording head located above the supporting table to eject ink toward the supporting table, a first contact detector located above the supporting table and lower than the recording head, an oscillator to vibrate the first contact detector, and a vibration detector to detect vibration of the first contact detector and transmit a signal corresponding to the detected vibration. The printer stores a threshold related to the vibration of the first contact detector and determines that an object has come into contact with the first contact detector when an amount of the vibration detected by the vibration detector is equal to the threshold or less.
