Abstract
An inkjet printing apparatus includes a transfer member, a printhead, a heating unit, and a transfer unit. A cooling unit, provided upstream of the printhead with respect to a rotation direction of the transfer member, cools down the transfer member, and a first measurement unit, provided around the transfer member, between the printhead and the cooling unit, measures a temperature of the transfer member. In addition, a second measurement unit, provided around the transfer member, between the heating unit and the transfer unit, measures a temperature of the transfer member. A control unit controls the cooling unit based on the temperature measured by the first measurement unit, and controls the heating unit based on the temperature measured by the second measurement unit.
