Abstract
A recording apparatus includes: first and second recording modules; a storage accommodating a recording medium; a first path extending from the storage to the first recording module; a second path extending from the storage to the second recording module and including a first shared portion shared with the first path; a first roller pair disposed downstream of a branch position on the first path; and a second roller pair disposed on the first shared portion. The controller is configured to: determine whether a trailing edge of the recording medium on which recording is being performed by the first recording module is located downstream of the first roller pair on the first path; and when the trailing edge is located downstream of the first roller pair on the first path, cause the second roller pair to supply a recording medium from the storage to the second recording module.
