A printing apparatus includes a conveyance unit, a printing unit, a platen section facing the printing unit, a regulation unit arranged on a downstream side of the printing unit in the conveyance direction and configured to regulate a height position of the print medium, and a guide section arranged on a downstream side of the platen section. The guide section includes a first declined section, a second declined section arranged on the downstream side of the first declined section in the conveyance direction, and an inclined section inclined from the second declined section to the downstream side in the conveyance direction. A declination of the second declined section is more moderate than that of the first declined section, and the regulation unit faces the guide section.
