Claim 8:
9. The liquid discharge apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the roller includes a first roller and a second roller,
wherein a contact point of the first roller with the medium is different from a contact point of the second roller with the medium in an orthogonal direction orthogonal to the nozzle surface,
wherein the recording area is an area of the medium, extending in a main moving direction intersecting with the conveyance direction and parallel to the nozzle surface, the area including a first area facing the first roller in the orthogonal direction in a case that the medium is conveyed in the conveyance direction and a second area facing the second roller in the orthogonal direction in a case that the medium is conveyed in the conveyance direction,
wherein the threshold value includes a first threshold value and a second threshold value,
wherein the controller is configured to determine whether or not one of a first condition, a second condition or both the first condition and the second condition is met in the second determining process, the first condition being a condition in which the discharge amount to the first area exceeds the first threshold value, and the second condition being a condition in which the discharge amount to the second area exceeds the second threshold value, and
wherein the first threshold value differs from the second threshold value according to positions of the contact point of the first roller and the contact point of the second roller in the orthogonal direction.
