Even if a recording medium is interfered with an opposed surface of a carriage and/or a recording head due to the curl of the recording medium, damage of the recording medium and the recording head is prevented by avoiding collision between an edge of the recording medium and the carriage and/or the recording head. The opposed surface (opposed to the recording medium) of the recording head 1 or the carriage is made smooth to form a smooth portion, and a moving range of the carriage is limited so that the smooth portion is not moved out of the recording medium, and a preliminary discharge receiving portion for receiving ink discharged to recover the recording head is disposed within the moving range of the carriage, and the moving range of the carriage is controlled to be limited when it is judged that curl will occur in the recording medium.
