Abstract

See full text

A thickness of a recording medium to be held in a holding region of an outer circumferential part of a cylindrical portion having plural suction holes and a suction position positioned in a predetermined direction from a position of a shaft is acquired. In a case where the thickness of the recording medium is equal to or greater than a first threshold value, a suction flow rate of each suction hole disposed in a subsequent region other than a leading edge of the recording medium is set as a first suction flow rate, and a suction flow rate of each suction hole disposed in the leading edge is set as a second suction flow rate which is smaller than the first suction flow rate. In a case where the thickness of the recording medium is smaller than the first threshold value, a suction flow rate of each suction hole disposed in the holding region is set as a third flow rate which is smaller than the first flow rate.
