Abstract
A printing apparatus includes a conveyance unit arranged on an upstream side of a printing unit with respect to a conveyance direction of a print medium and configured to convey the print medium to the printing unit, and a control unit configured to, after a start of printing of the print medium by the printing unit, regulate the printing by the printing unit during a time when a leading edge of the print medium conveyed by the conveyance unit is passing through a set section preset on a conveyance path of the print medium.
Claims10
A printing apparatus comprising:
- a conveyance unit arranged on an upstream side of a printing unit with respect to a conveyance direction of a print medium and configured to convey the print medium to the printing unit;
- a support unit configured to support, from a lower side, the print medium conveyed by the conveyance unit, the support unit including a platen section facing the printing unit, and a guide section extended from the platen section to a downstream side in the conveyance direction;
- and
- a control unit configured to, after a start of printing of the print medium by the printing unit, regulate the printing by the printing unit during a time when a leading edge of the print medium conveyed by the conveyance unit is passing through a set section preset on a conveyance path of the print medium, wherein,
- the guide section includes an inclined section inclined in a direction of approaching a support height of the print medium in the platen section to the downstream side in the conveyance direction, and
- the set section is a section including at least a part of the inclined section.
A control method of a printing apparatus including a conveyance unit arranged on an upstream side of a printing unit with respect to a conveyance direction of a print medium and configured to convey the print medium to the printing unit;
- and a support unit configured to support, from a lower side, the print medium conveyed by the conveyance unit, the support unit including a platen section facing the printing unit and a guide section extended from the platen section to a downstream side in the conveyance direction, the guide section including an inclined section inclined in a direction of approaching a support height of the print medium in the platen section to the downstream side in the conveyance direction, the method comprising:
- after a start of printing of the print medium by the printing unit, regulating the printing by the printing unit during a time when a leading edge of the print medium conveyed by the conveyance unit is passing through a set section preset on a conveyance path of the print medium,
- wherein the set section is a section including at least a part of the inclined section.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program configured to cause a computer to execute a control method of a printing apparatus including a conveyance unit arranged on an upstream side of a printing unit with respect to a conveyance direction of a print medium and configured to convey the print medium to the printing unit;
- and a support unit configured to support, from a lower side, the print medium conveyed by the conveyance unit, the support unit including a platen section facing the printing unit and a guide section extended from the platen section to a downstream side in the conveyance direction, the guide section including an inclined section inclined in a direction of approaching a support height of the print medium in the platen section to the downstream side in the conveyance direction, the control method comprising:
- after a start of printing of the print medium by the printing unit, regulating the printing by the printing unit during a time when a leading edge of the print medium conveyed by the conveyance unit is passing through a set section preset on a conveyance path of the print medium,
- wherein the set section is a section including at least a part of the inclined section.
