Abstract
A printing apparatus that performs printing through an inkjet method includes an inkjet head and an ink supply system, where the ink supply system includes a pressure damper that is a pressure adjustment mechanism, a flow path that is a container-side flow path, and a connecting member in which a flow path that is a head-side flow path for flowing ink from the pressure damper to the inkjet head is formed, the pressure damper supplies ink adjusted to a pressure in a predetermined range lower than atmospheric pressure from an output port that is a pressure adjustment mechanism outlet to the flow path, and a flow path cross-sectional area of at least one part of the flow path in the connecting member is larger than a flow path cross-sectional area of the output port.
