摘要:
A recording apparatus is provided with an upper unit having a recording head for discharging ink for effecting recording on a recording medium in response to information, and at least a portion of the electric circuit of the apparatus, a lower unit having a platen for maintaining the recording medium in the recording station by the recording head, the lower unit capable of being spaced apart relative to the upper unit, and a conveying member for conveying the recording medium to the recording station. The upper unit and the lower unit are capable of being spaced apart and opened in the recording station by the recording head.

A substrate holding apparatus for vertically holding a substrate to be exposed by radiation includes a substrate holding member for attracting a substrate by a magnetic force or vacuum and an engaging device for engaging the substrate on the substrate holding member. The engaging device is retractably supported by or fixed to the substrate holding member, and is engageable with or engages the substrate in such a manner that the engagement between the vertically held substrate and the engaging device is maintained even if the substrate holding member ceases to attract the substrate. Thus, dropping of the substrate by gravitation is prevented even if the substrate ceases to be attracted by the substrate holding member.

An ink jet recording apparatus comprising: a non-contact print mode in which a medium to be recorded is conveyed to a region in which printing can be performed and is subjected to recording by discharging ink in a non-contact manner from a recording head confronting the medium at a predetermined interval; and a contact cleaning mode in which a cleaning sheet which has been conveyed into the region in which printing can be performed by using at least a part of a conveyance route for the medium is brought into contact with the recording head and then discharged from the region in which printing can be performed.
