Abstract: Provided is a leak detecting apparatus for an ink flow channel in a recording apparatus configured to supply ink from an ink supply unit via the ink flow channel to an ink discharge unit, and cause the ink to be discharged from the ink discharge unit for recording, the leak detecting apparatus including: a pressurized gas delivery unit that is connectable to the ink supply unit and delivers pressurized gas; and a pressure detecting unit provided in the pressurized gas delivery unit. The pressure variation in the ink flow channel filled with pressurized gas in association with delivery of the pressurized gas from the pressurized gas delivery unit to the ink flow channel via the ink supply unit in a pressurized manner is capable of being detected by the pressure detecting unit.
