Abstract
A printing apparatus, having a platen to support a printing medium unrolled from a roll, a conveyer to convey the printing medium on the platen in a first direction, a head to print an image on the printing medium supported by the platen at a position on one side of the platen in a second direction intersecting with the first direction, a corrugating member to corrugate the printing medium, and a cutter to cut the printing medium, is provided. The corrugating member has a plurality of ribs and presser portions. The plurality of ribs align spaced from one another in a third direction, which intersects with the first direction and the second direction. The plurality of ribs protrude from the platen in the second direction. The presser portions press the printing medium toward the platen at intervening positions between adjoining ones of the plurality of ribs.
