A fluid ejection device which ejects a fluid includes: an ejection pipe having an opening to eject the fluid； a fluid chamber which communicates with the ejection pipe and changes in volume due to displacement of a piezoelectric element； a supply channel which communicates with the fluid chamber； an opening/closing unit which is provided on the supply channel and opens and closes the supply channel； a fluid supplying unit which pressurizes the fluid and supplies the fluid to the fluid chamber via the supply channel； and a voltage controller which applies a drive voltage to the piezoelectric element. The voltage controller controls the drive voltage applied to the piezoelectric element so that the drive voltage reaches a predetermined voltage after the supply channel is opened by the opening/closing unit.
