Abstract
An image recording apparatus includes a controller configured to control an image recorder to execute a recording processing in a first mode or a second mode. In the first mode, the controller controls the image recorder to execute the recording processing when a specific-type cartridge has not been connected to a connecting portion and controls the image recorder not to execute the recording processing when the specific-type cartridge has been connected to the connecting portion. In the second mode, the controller controls the image recorder to execute the recording processing in any of a case where the specific-type cartridge has not been connected to the connecting portion and a case where the specific-type cartridge has been connected to the connecting portion. The controller stores first recording information relating to the recording processing executed when the specific-type cartridge has been connected to the connecting portion.
