Abstract:
1. A recording method, comprising: preparing a recording apparatus provided with forming a plurality of lines on the medium by alternately repeating a transport operation of transporting the medium in the transport direction and a forming operation of forming lines on the medium by ejecting ink from the nozzles while causing the head to move in the movement direction; calculating correction values based on an interval between the lines in the transport direction; and controlling the transport mechanism based on a corrected target transport amount after correcting the target transport amount based on the correction values, wherein (A) in forming the plurality of lines on the medium, (B) based on an interval in the transport direction between two first lines of the plurality of first lines, calculating the correction values to correct the target transport amount when the transport mechanism is transporting the medium in a state where the first roller is in contact with the medium, and based on an interval in the transport direction between two second lines of the plurality of second lines, calculating the correction values to correct the target transport amount when the transport mechanism is transporting the medium in a state where the first roller is not in contact with the medium and the second roller is in contact with the medium.
