INKJET RECORDING APPARATUS, INKJET RECORDING METHOD, PROGRAM, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate improvement of a throughput by starting feeding of a next page recording medium as early as possible in the case where an image is to be formed to the next page recording medium next to the present page recording medium. SOLUTION: When an image is being recorded to the present page paper P1 in the inkjet recording apparatus 1, a rear end remaining amount Le which is a length from a detection position of a paper detecting sensor S3 to a rear end Pe of the present page paper P1 is obtained, and at the same time, a remaining recording time Tr until the image formation to the present page paper P1 is finished from the present time point is obtained. In the inkjet recording apparatus 1, in the case where the image is to be formed to a next page paper P2 and when the rear end remaining amount Le becomes shorter than a reference rear end remaining amount Lr and also the remaining recording time Tr becomes shorter than a reference remaining recording time TrR, feeding of the next page paper P2 is started by a paper feed unit 4.
