Abstract:
A recording apparatus which suppresses banding which occurs on a recording surface of a medium.

Claim (Index 1):
A medium transport device comprising:\n a processing unit which performs a process relating to a medium which is transported; an upstream transport mechanism which is provided on an upstream side of the medium in a transport direction with respect to the processing unit; a downstream transport mechanism which is provided on a downstream side in the transport direction with respect to the processing unit; a first drive source which drives the upstream transport mechanism; a second drive source which drives the downstream transport mechanism; a medium detector which is provided on the upstream side in the transport direction with respect to the upstream transport mechanism and detects a position of an end portion of the medium in the transport direction; and a control unit which controls transporting the medium performed by the upstream transport mechanism and the downstream transport mechanism, wherein, based on detection results of the medium detector, the control unit determines a transport state from among\n a first transport state in which a single sheet of the medium is transported by the upstream transport mechanism and is not transported by the downstream transport mechanism, \n a second transport state in which the single sheet of the medium is transported by both the upstream transport mechanism and the downstream transport mechanism, and \n a third transport state in which the single sheet of the medium is transported by the downstream transport mechanism and is not transported by the upstream transport mechanism, and \n controls the first drive source and the second drive source based on a determination result of the transport state.
