Abstract
A recording apparatus includes a transport unit capable of transporting a medium, a detection unit capable of detecting a transport direction in which the transport unit transports the medium, a recording unit capable of performing recording on the medium transported by the transport unit, and a plurality of rotating bodies provided in an intersecting direction that intersects the transport direction. Each rotating body is capable of contacting a side surface of the medium opposite to a recording surface of the medium on which recording is performed by the recording unit and has a rotation shaft that extends in the intersecting direction. The apparatus further includes a control unit that controls rotation speed of each rotating body individually on the basis of a result of detection by the detection unit.
