A recording apparatus includes a plurality of feeding units each configured to feed a sheet, a conveyance unit configured to convey the sheet to this recording unit, a first detection unit provided on an upstream side of the recording unit in a direction in which the sheet is conveyed and configured to detect whether there is the sheet, a driving control unit configured to control driving of a motor for conveying a roll sheet fed from a roll sheet feeding unit, and a determination unit configured to determine the feeding unit that feeds the sheet to the recording unit. If the first detection unit detects that there is the sheet, the driving control unit drives the motor in a direction for rewinding the roll sheet, and the determination unit executes the determination processing for the feeding unit based on an output value associated with the driving of the motor.
