Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a liquid container configured to contain, outside a recording area of the recording apparatus, liquid to be supplied to a recording head configured to perform recording by discharging the liquid to a recording medium in the recording area, a maintenance unit disposed outside the recording area, including a suction unit configured to suck the liquid from the recording head, and configured to carry out maintenance of the recording head, and a liquid reservoir portion below the liquid container and the maintenance unit.

Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a container, a passage, first and second cover portions, and a valve unit. Liquid is injected into the container through an injection portion and supplied from the container through the passage to the liquid discharge head. The first cover portion pivots on a first axis as a center between an open position to allow access to the injection portion and a close position to not allow access to the injection portion. The second cover portion pivots on a second axis intersecting the first axis and as a center between an open position of the second cover portion to expose the first cover portion and a close position of the second cover portion to cover the first cover portion. The valve unit switches to an open state to open the passage when the second cover portion pivots from the open position to the close position.

Abstract: A sheet is cut between a first conveying unit and a second conveying unit in a state in which the first and second conveying units halt and in which an upstream conveying unit conveys the sheet at a first speed; after the sheet is cut, the first conveying unit conveys the sheet at a second speed higher than the first speed to reduce a slack formed during the halting; after the sheet is cut, the second conveying unit conveys the downstream-side sheet at a third speed higher than the first speed; if the third conveying unit is nipping the sheet during cutting, the third conveying unit conveys the sheet at the third speed; and if the third conveying unit is not nipping the sheet, the third conveying unit conveys the sheet at the third speed or a fourth speed after the detecting unit detects the sheet.

Abstract: A sheet cutting apparatus includes a cutting unit configured to cut a sheet, a discharge unit configured to discharge a fragment of the sheet cut by the cutting unit, a blowing unit configured to blow air on the fragment discharged from the discharge unit, and a storage unit configured to store the fragment discharged from the discharge unit.

Abstract: In the case of performing duplex printing on a continuous sheet, by setting a length of a non-image area to an optimum length, both of mark detection having high reliability and the suppression of a sheet consumption amount are achieved. For this purpose, when duplex printing of a plurality of images on front and back surfaces of the continuous sheet is performed, on the basis of a length of the image to be printed precedently to a non-image area W3 on the second surface, the length of the non-image area common to the front and back surface is set.
