A recording device includes a conveyance mechanism, a recording mechanism, a rotational mechanism of a plurality of take-up spindles, and a control unit. The conveyance mechanism is configured to convey a recording medium intermittently in a conveyance direction. The recording mechanism is configured to record by reciprocatingly scanning a recording head in a direction that intersects with the conveyance direction. The rotational mechanism is configured to take up the recording medium. The control unit is configured to control the conveyance mechanism and the rotational mechanism to substantially synchronize conveying of the recording medium by the conveyance mechanism and taking-up of the recording medium by the rotational mechanism.

Recording device, take-up device, and method for taking up recoding medium

A conveyance mechanism by which a recording medium can be conveyed intermittently; a recording mechanism for recording by reciprocatingly scanning a recording head in a direction that intersects with a direction of conveyance of the recording medium by the conveyance mechanism; a turret to which a plurality of take-up spindles for taking up the recording medium are provided; rotational mechanisms of the take-up spindles; a rotational mechanism of the turret; and a control unit for controlling the rotational mechanisms of the take-up spindles and the rotational mechanism of the turret so as to cause the take-up spindles and/or the turret to be rotated intermittently so as to correspond to the intermittent conveyance by the conveyance mechanism.

Recording device, take-up device, and method for taking up recording medium

A recording apparatus includes a plurality of line heads that discharge light curable inks onto a recording target material, a plurality of first light irradiators that are located at downstream side of transportation direction relative to the respective line heads in the transportation direction and emit light to the recording target material, a drum that is located at the downstream side relative to the first light irradiators in the transportation direction and forms a part of the transportation path, and a second light irradiator that is located opposite to a portion of the drum with which the transported recording target material makes contact and emits light to the contact portion. In the recording apparatus, the first light irradiators emit light for provisionally curing the discharged light curable inks, and the second light irradiator emits light for permanently curing the light curable inks, which have been provisionally cured, on the drum.
