Abstract
A printing apparatus includes a transport unit that intermittently transports a medium, a support portion that supports the medium, a head that performs printing by discharging a liquid onto the medium supported by the support portion during a period in which the transport of the medium by the transport unit is stopped, a carriage at which the head is mounted and that moves relative to the medium, and a control unit. The control unit starts the movement of the carriage before the transport of the medium by the transport unit is completed, and starts the discharge of the liquid by the head after the transport of the medium by the transport unit is completed.
