Color measurement apparatus

A color measurement apparatus to which a colorimeter that measures a color of a color measurement target is configured to be attached, the color measurement apparatus comprising:

• a support base that supports the color measurement target;
• a carriage that supports the colorimeter;
• a gantry that supports the carriage;
• a first scanning mechanism that causes the carriage to perform scanning in a first direction on the support base;
• and
• a second scanning mechanism that causes the gantry to perform scanning in a second direction intersecting the first direction, wherein
• the second scanning mechanism includes a second motor that generates a driving force for displacing the gantry in the second direction in a main body portion having the support base, and a second transmission mechanism that has a belt that transmits the driving force from the second motor to the gantry, and
• the second motor is provided on a center side of the main body portion with respect to the belt when viewed from a third direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction.
