Abstract

See full text

A recording part including an ink cartridge is inclined with respect to a horizontal mounting plane to incline the path of a recording sheet with respect to the vertical direction. A footer mark is recorded with an ink ejected from some ejection orifices situated on the upstream side of such an ink cartridge, i.e. from the upper ejection orifices thereof. As a result, the presence or absence of ink within the ink cartridge can be detected promptly, and whether the recording of image data has been performed normally can be judged automatically. A discharge action for the recording medium can be facilitated by utilizing its own weight.
