Abstract
A print apparatus includes a print unit configured to perform printing on a print medium, a transport belt on which the print medium is mounted, a driving section configured to move the belt in a predetermined belt movement direction so as to transport the print medium, a detection section configured to detect marks for detection of a movement amount formed on side ends of the transport belt, and a driving controller configured to control the driving section based on a result of the detection performed by the detection section. The driving controller obtains an error of movement amounts of the transport belt based on the result of the detection performed by the detection section and performs control such that the obtained error is corrected.
