Abstract:
A printing apparatus includes a print section configured to perform printing on a medium, a supply path configured to supply the medium toward the print section, a feeding roller configured to feed the medium along the supply path from an upstream side to a downstream side in a transport direction, a toothed roller provided on the downstream side of the feeding roller in the transport direction, a drive source configured to rotate the feeding roller and the toothed roller, and a controller configured to control driving of the drive source. The controller performs rotation control for rotating the feed roller prior to the rotation of the toothed roller with which the medium has collided. The controller performs the rotation control when the controller determines that the grammage of the medium is greater than or equal to a threshold value.
