Printing apparatus

A printing apparatus comprising:

• a print head having a nozzle array including a plurality of nozzles arranged in a first direction, the printing apparatus being configured to print an image on a print medium by ejecting ink while moving the print head relative to the print medium in a second direction intersecting the first direction;
• a power supply configured to supply electric power to the print head;
• and
• a control unit for controlling the number of nozzles to be used for printing among the plurality of nozzles constituting the nozzle array, on the basis of an upper limit value of electric power that can be supplied by the power supply to the print head, wherein
• the control unit can perform:
• first control in which printing is performed using all of the nozzles of the nozzle array;
• and
• second control in which printing is performed using some of the nozzles of the nozzle array, and wherein
• under the second control, printing is performed on a partial area obtained by reducing a scanning area, which is an area printable under the first control, in the first direction.
