Abstract
A printing apparatus including: a first nozzle group including a first and third nozzles which ejects a first liquid; and a second nozzle group including a second nozzle which ejects a second liquid, in which, when an ejection state of the liquid ejected from the one nozzle which belongs to the first nozzle group is abnormal, complementation is performed using complementation modes of a first complementation mode that increases the amount of a liquid to be ejected from the first nozzle instead of allowing the one nozzle to eject the liquid, a second complementation mode that increases the amount of the liquid to be ejected from the second nozzle instead of allowing the one nozzle to eject the liquid, and a third complementation mode that increases the amount of the liquid to be ejected from the third nozzle instead of allowing the liquid to be ejected from the one nozzle.
