Abstract:
The present invention relates to a printing apparatus which is provided with a holding unit that holds, so as to be rotatable, a plurality of roll bodies on which a medium (M) is wound in a cylindrical shape, a transport device (100) which has a transport unit (110) that imparts a transport force by coming into contact with the medium (M) that is unwound from the roll body which is held in the holding unit, a pressing unit (120) which presses the medium (M) toward the transport unit (110), and an adjustment unit (140) which is able to adjust a pressing force on the medium (M) in each of a plurality of regions in a width direction, and is able to transport the plurality of mediums (M) in the transport direction (F) in a state of being lined up in the width direction, a printing unit which performs printing on the medium (M) that is transported by the transport device (100), and a control unit which controls the adjustment unit (140) such that pressing force on the medium (M) in the non-printing state is smaller than in the printing state.
