Abstract
A recording apparatus often has a timing to shift to a standby status if there is no residual paper in the apparatus, for example, when a power source is turned on, when the apparatus is recovered from a sleep mode, when a door is closed, when the power source is reset, or the like. When the residual paper is detected in the apparatus at such a timing, the apparatus is controlled to a proper wait status in order to discharge the residual paper and waits for an instruction from the outside. In response to the paper discharging instruction from the outside, a discharging operation of the residual paper is executed.
