The floating detection section has a plurality of light emitting elements capable of emitting light to positions different from each other in the recording medium and one light receiving element capable of sequentially receiving reflected light emitted from the plurality of light emitting elements. The floating in the different positions is capable of being detected from received light intensity of the reflected light.
