Abstract
A printing apparatus includes a control unit that reduces an overlap amount of a preceding print medium and a succeeding print medium, from an overlap state in which the succeeding print medium overlaps a trailing edge of the preceding print medium and alternately performs an operation of conveying a print medium by a first conveyance unit and a printing operation of ejecting ink on the print medium while moving a carriage in a state in which the print medium stops. The reduction control conveys the preceding print medium conveyed by the second conveyance unit faster than the succeeding print medium conveyed by the first conveyance unit, in a state in which the printing control for the succeeding print medium is executed.
