Abstract: An inkjet recording apparatus includes a conveyance portion, a recording head, a detection portion, and a control portion. The recording head is disposed opposite the conveyance portion, and includes a plurality of nozzles which eject ink to the recording medium conveyed by the conveyance portion. The detection portion detects the thickness of the recording medium. The control portion controls the ink ejection speed from the recording head based on the thickness of the recording medium detected by the detection portion.

Abstract: An ink-jet recording apparatus includes a recording head, an ink reservoir portion, an ink amount sensor, a dot counter, and a control portion. The ink reservoir portion stores ink to he ted to the recording head. The ink amount sensor senses the amount of ink in the ink reservoir portion. The dot counter for measures in a cumulative manner the number of dots in the ink ejected from the recording head. The control portion changes the amount of ink ejected from the recording head based on the difference between a calculated value of the amount of consumed ink as calculated based on the cumulative number of dots measured by the dot counter and a measured value of the amount of consumed ink as determined based on the amount of ink in the ink reservoir portion as sensed by the ink amount sensor.
