A recording system includes an ejecting unit, a punch unit, and a control unit. The ejecting unit ejects ink onto a sheet transported by a transport unit to form an image. The punch unit forms a plurality of through holes in the sheet. The control unit controls an ejection amount per unit area of ink in the ejecting unit based on image data. Furthermore, the control unit divides a region into a first region not including the through hole, and a second region including the through hole, and controls an ejection amount of the ink in the ejecting unit such that a second ejection amount per unit area when an image is formed in the second region is less than a first ejection amount per unit area when an image is formed in the first region.
