Abstract
A printing device includes a head including a nozzle configured to eject ink, a platen configured to support a printing medium to which a pretreatment liquid is applied, the pretreatment liquid containing a volatile component that reacts with the ink, and a controller configured to cause the head to perform an ejection drive that causes the nozzle to eject the ink and a non-ejection drive that causes the nozzle not to eject the ink, and cause the head to perform the non-ejection drive in at least a part of a period other than an ejection period in which the head performs the ejection drive to cause the nozzle to eject the ink toward the printing medium, in a case where the head and the printing medium face each other.
