Abstract
There is provided a printing apparatus, including: a casing having a discharge opening and a conveyance route; a roller; a driving source; a printing head; a scanner disposed at a downstream side in a discharge direction; and a controller. The controller is configured to, depending on a printing preparation command, detect a leading-end position of a sheet; determine whether a printing surface of the sheet includes an error position that is not suitable for printing; and convey the sheet until the error position reaches the downstream position from the printing head. Then, the controller controls the printing head to execute printing of an image on the sheet.
