Abstract
A recording apparatus includes: a recording head that ejects liquid onto a recording medium; a transporting device that transports the recording medium along a supporting surface; and a preheating device that preheats the recording medium to the upstream side of the recording head in a transporting direction of the recording medium, in which the preheating device includes a preheating unit that increases the amount of heat per unit time which is applied to the recording medium, as the recording medium is moved toward the downstream side in the transporting direction.
