Abstract
An inkjet recording apparatus includes a recording head, a detection section, and a determination section. The recording head includes nozzles that eject ink onto a recording medium. The detection section detects ejection failure in a nozzle among the nozzles. The determination section determines a direction of the recording medium to be fed to the recording head based on a result of detection by the detection section and an image formed on the recording medium.
