Abstract
A recording apparatus includes a tray in which a recording material is to be set, the tray being reciprocated between a first position where the tray is exposed to allow the recording material to be set therein and a second position shifted from the first position in a first direction, where the tray is stored; a transporting mechanism that applies transportation force for reciprocating the tray; and a transportation-force transmitting member that is connected to the tray to mediate transmission of the transportation force to the tray and is capable of increasing or decreasing a space occupied by the transportation-force transmitting member in the direction of reciprocation.
