For this purpose, in a multipass printing system which repetitively alternates a printing scan, which causes the print head to eject ink from the nozzles as it moves in the main scan direction, and a feeding operation, which feeds a print medium in a sub scan direction, the feed distance of the print medium is set according to a density of an image being printed on the print medium.
