Abstract
A printing apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a biasing member that applies a force in a −Y direction, a motor supporting member including a reference surface and an inclined surface inclined so that a distance between the reference surface and the inclined surface gradually decreases in the −Y direction, and a motor including an abutting member configured to abut on the reference surface and the inclined surface. By applying the force in the −Y direction from the biasing member to the motor, the abutting member abuts on the reference surface and the inclined surface.
