Abstract
A recording apparatus includes a control unit that acquires information regarding shapes and sizes of a recording material and a transport material to which the recording material is to be bonded. The control unit is configured to operate in a first recording mode in which a positioning pattern is recorded on the transport material, the positioning pattern being used to position the recording material on the transport material, and also configured to operate in a second recording mode in which the data is recorded on the recording material positioned on the transport material during transport of the transport material.
Claims17
A recording apparatus comprising:
- a recording unit that records data on a recording material;
- a transport unit that transports a transport material, the transport material having a larger size than that of the recording material at least in a transport direction;
- and
- a control unit that controls both the recording unit and the transport unit, wherein
- the control unit acquires information regarding shapes and sizes of the recording material and the transport material, and
- the control unit is configured to operate in a first recording mode in which a positioning pattern is recorded on the transport material, the positioning pattern being used to position the recording material on the transport material and to operate in a second recording mode in which the data is recorded on the recording material positioned on the transport material, during transport of the transport material.
A recording apparatus comprising:
- a recording unit that records data on a recording material;
- a transport unit that transports a transport material, the transport material having a larger size than that of the recording material at least in a transport direction;
- a control unit that controls both the recording unit and the transport unit;
- and
- a scanning unit that scans the transport material on which the recording material is positioned, wherein
- the control unit acquires information regarding shapes and sizes of the recording material and the transport material and information regarding a position of the recording material relative to the transport material, based on scan information received from the scanning unit, and
- the control unit is configured to operate in a recording mode in which the data is recorded on the recording material based on the acquired information during transport of the transport material.
