<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problems in a recording apparatus having a recording mode using part of element arrays, wherein only solvent of heated pigment ink or the like which is easily agglomerated vaporizes when a keep-warming control for heating ink in all nozzle arrays is performed agglomeration (thickening and fixing) of the ink is generated in a discharge port, discharge failure such as clogging of the discharge port occurs when the ink is agglomerated, and the ink cannot be discharged when changing to other recording modes. <P>SOLUTION: In the recording apparatus having a plurality of recording modes, the keep-warming performance is performed using energy generation elements used for recording performance in the selected recording mode. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
