Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides a recording apparatus which can determine a position of a carriage on which a recording head is mounted with high accuracy without enhancing positional accuracy of a carriage position detecting system. In this recording apparatus, a rod-like member is moved upwardly to be engaged by a recessed portion formed in the carriage. A deviation amount of the carriage generated by such engagement is detected by a linear encoder and is used as a correction value when the carriage is moved next time.
