Printing apparatus, method for controlling printing apparatus, and storage medium having first and second caps capping a liquid ejection nozzle and associated recovery operations

A printing apparatus comprising:

• a carriage configured to move, and to be mounted a printing head, the printing head having a nozzle configured to eject a liquid;
• a first cap disposed at one end of a range in which the carriage moves and configured to cap the nozzle;
• a second cap disposed at the other end of the range in which the carriage moves and configured to cap the nozzle;
• and
• a control unit configured to execute either a first control in which the nozzle is capped by the first cap or a second control in which the nozzle is capped by the second cap, in a case when the carriage has anomalously stopped during printing using the printing head,
• wherein a recovery operation on the printing head after the first control is executed is different from a recovery operation on the printing head after the second control is executed, and
• wherein a cleaning intensity of the recovery operation in a case when the first control is executed is lower than that of the recovery operation in a case when the second control is executed.

• and
• a pump configured to collect the liquid that is not ejected from the nozzle,
• wherein a recovery operation on the printing head after the first control is executed is different from a recovery operation on the printing head after the second control is executed, and
• wherein the pump is operated in a case when the carriage has anomalously stopped during printing using the printing head.

• wherein a recovery operation on the printing head after the first control is executed is different from a recovery operation on the printing head after the second control is executed,
• wherein the printing head includes a plurality of nozzles corresponding to a plurality of color liquids, and
• wherein a different recovery operation is executed depending on each of the plurality of the color liquids.
