Abstract

A recording method and apparatus for effecting recording on a recording medium includes elements and steps which recognize a recording width over which recording is to be effected and effecting recording on a recording medium at a movement velocity selected in conformity with the recognized recording width by first accelerating a recording unit along the conveyance path of the recording medium, then moving the recording unit along the conveyance path with a uniform velocity and then decelerating the recording unit, and by effecting recording when the recording unit moves at a constant velocity and when the recording unit is accelerating or decelerating.
