Abstract
A printing apparatus includes a printing head, a control unit, and a reading unit, and the printing apparatus forms a test pattern for correcting printing characteristics on the medium and corrects the printing characteristics based on a reading result of the test pattern obtained by the reading unit. The control unit acquires moire characteristics information for determining whether moire of a reading density due to an interference between an arrangement of a plurality of dots included in the test pattern and the reading resolution at the reading unit occurs. The control unit controls the ejection of the droplet such that when the moire characteristics information does not indicate occurrence of the moire, the test pattern is formed on the medium N1 times and when the moire characteristics information indicates occurrence of the moire, the test pattern is formed on the medium N2 times, N2 being an integer greater than N1.
