Abstract
A recording apparatus can improve stability of the speed of a carriage without increasing the production cost. The recording apparatus for performing recording by discharging ink from a recording device onto a recording medium includes a carriage adapted to convey a recording head, and a conveying member adapted to drive the carriage using a belt stretched between pulleys connected to corresponding ones of two motors. A driving force for the carriage by the two motors is differently distributed.
