Abstract
An image recording apparatus executes: rotating a motor to cause a supply roller to supply a sheet; a conveyance processing for rotating the motor to cause a conveying roller and/or an output roller to convey the sheet; a recording processing for controlling a recording head to perform image recording while the conveyance processing is not executed; controlling the recording head and the motor to perform an image recording operation by executing the conveyance processing and the recording processing alternately; and a pre-discharge supply processing in the image recording operation at a time after a timing when a trailing edge position of a first sheet passes through the conveying roller and before all the recording processings on the first sheet are completed. The supply roller supplies a second sheet in the pre-discharge supply processing to the conveyance path, following the first sheet.
