PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a recording apparatus capable of utilizing a power supply capacity to its maximum without overly degrading a throughput. SOLUTION: An area that can be recorded in one scan of a recording head is divided into a plurality of blocks. The number of data indicating record in each block is detected. Then, the detected value is compared with a plurality of thresholds. Based on a result of the comparison, a scan speed of the recording head and the number of scan are determined. Such arrangement allows for a selection of an optimum recording method from among a plurality of scan speeds and a plurality of divided recording modes even when an image that may cause a current in excess of the maximum power supply capacity to flow is recorded. With this recording apparatus, it is possible to perform recording fully utilizing the power supply capacity without overly degrading the throughput. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
