Abstract
The recording apparatus includes a recording head that performs dot-recording on the recording material through a plurality of recording elements arranged on the recording head; a mechanism to move the recording head in a main scan direction to perform recording; and a transport mechanism to feed the recording material in a sub-scan direction perpendicular to the main scan direction after each main scan operation. The transport mechanism is formed of a combination of driving elements including a driving source. The feeding distance that the recording material is fed in one feeding operation is set synchronized with the driving cycle of the driving elements including the driving source. This arrangement allows the recording head, which has an array of ink ejection nozzles arranged with a conventional density, to produce a dot-recorded image having a resolution two or more times higher than the conventional resolution.
