Abstract

An apparatus for regenerating a recording medium has a feeder which feeds a recording medium, a transporter which transports the recording medium, an immersion bath for containing a cleaning liquid for swelling prints and immersing the recording medium in the cleaning liquid, a print remover which removes the prints by subjecting the surface of the recording medium to a physical treatment, and a fluidizing structure for fluidizing the cleaning liquid in a direction opposite to a direction in which the recording medium is transported in the immersion bath.
