A regenerating apparatus for removing a printing material from a recording medium so as to reuse the recording medium includes a container, a container for accommodating a liquid for swelling the printing material; a guide member for guiding the recording medium, part of which is arranged in the liquid; a rotatable transporting roller for transporting the recording medium along the guide member, so that the printing material on the recording medium is immersed in the liquid; a rotatable transferring roller disposed near the guide member so as to be in contact at a circumferential surface thereof with the recording medium and receive the printing material swollen by the liquid from the recording medium. The surface of the transferring roller is formed with at least one of the materials selected from polyolefin resin, polyester resin, nitrogen containing resin, sulfur containing resin, fluororesin, silicon resin, polyacetal resin, epoxy resin, polyether ether ketone resin, and phenol resin.
