Abstract: A printing device includes: a set unit on which a print medium can be set; a projection unit (projector) capable of projecting a first image onto the print medium set on the set unit; a printing unit capable of printing a second image on the print medium set on the set unit; and a control unit configured to modify a printing specification of the second image to be formed on the print medium based on modification information regarding a modification made to a projection specification of the first image projected onto the print medium by the projection unit.

Abstract: A liquid discharging apparatus having a carriage that is capable of moving in a scanning direction and that has a discharging portion capable of discharging a liquid, a scale portion for confirming a position in the scanning direction of the carriage, and a cleaning portion that moves in the scanning direction of the carriage and is capable of cleaning the scale portion by contacting the scale portion. In such an apparatus, the cleaning portion is capable of displacement at a first state where contacting the scale portion and a second state where not contacting the scale portion.

Abstract: A medium supporting unit includes a supporting portion that supports a medium and a holding portion that holds the medium that is in a state of being supported by the supporting portion, and the holding portion includes a first portion that is a portion at one side of a straight line passing on a center of the holding portion in a plan view of the holding portion, and a second portion that is a portion at the another side of the straight line, a weight of the first portion being different from a weight of the second portion. This configuration of the medium supporting unit enables suppression of floating of the medium without impairing the ease of handling of the medium supporting unit.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a medium setting section on which a recording medium (M) is set; a recording section that records an image on the recording medium set on the medium setting section; and a medium moving section that reciprocates the medium setting section with respect to the recording section. The recording section includes a pretreatment section that supplies a pretreatment liquid to the recording medium when the medium setting section moves in a first direction, a leveling section that is provided on a further downstream side with respect to the pretreatment section in the first direction and levels a recording surface of the recording medium when the medium setting section moves in the first direction, and a supplying section that supplies ink to a leveled recording surface when the medium setting section moves in a second direction.
