Abstract: A recording apparatus includes: a recording path passing a recorder performing recording by ejecting liquid onto a medium; a feeding path through which the medium is fed to the recording path; a discharge path through which the medium after recording performed thereon by the recorder is discharged; a reading path extending through a reader reading an image, provided independently of the recording path, the feeding path, and the discharge path and to which the medium with a recorded image being used to check a state of liquid ejection of the recorder recorded thereon is fed; and a switching portion switching between a first state in which a feeding direction of the medium after recording performed thereon by the recorder is set to a direction toward the reading path and a second state in which the feeding direction is set to a direction other than the direction toward the reading path.
