ABSTRACT:
To provide a recording apparatus for recording an image on a recording medium having a flat image recording surface, the recording apparatus including: a rotary driving device which rotationally drives the recording medium; and an ink-jet head having a plurality of nozzles for ejecting ink onto the image recording surface of the recording medium, wherein each of the nozzles has an output port, and the ejection ports of the plurality of nozzles are arranged such that the distance between the ejection ports of the plurality of nozzles and the image recording surface becomes shorter toward an outer side from the rotational center of the recording medium. Accordingly, when ejecting two or more types of inks having different volumes onto a rotating recording medium, the distance between landing positions of droplets of these inks is substantially constant regardless of the positions in the recording medium.
