Abstract
A recording apparatus includes a recording portion, a liquid container portion containing a liquid to be supplied to the recording portion, a body in which the recording portion and the liquid container portion are mounted, and a housing that houses the body. The body can be changed in position between a closed position and an open position in a position-change direction intersecting with a vertical direction. The body, when located at the closed position, is housed inside the housing. The body, when located at the open position, protrudes from the housing in a first position-change direction of the position-change direction. The liquid container portion includes a container space containing the liquid to be supplied to the recording portion, and a liquid inlet through which the liquid can be poured into the container space. The liquid inlet is exposed when the body is located at the open position.
