A recording apparatus for effecting recording using a head cartridge includes a carriage to which the head cartridge is mountable, the carriage being movable while carrying the head cartridge; an encoder for detecting movement of the carriage; a detecting portion for detecting whether or not the carriage and the head cartridge are electrically connected with each other; and a discriminating section for discriminating that the head cartridge is not properly mounted to the carriage, when the encoder, after an operation of mounting the head cartridge to the carriage, does not detect the movement of the carriage, and the detecting portion, after the operation of mounting the head cartridge to the carriage, does not detect electrical connection between the carriage and the head cartridge.
