To perform high-quality printing more appropriately, a printing device that performs printing on a medium includes: an inkjet head as a head for pretreatment agent that ejects a pretreatment agent; inkjet heads as heads for color ink; and an ultraviolet ray irradiation unit as an energy ray irradiation unit. The pretreatment agent is a liquid that contains a solvent and generates heat in response to ultraviolet rays. The ultraviolet ray irradiation unit emits ultraviolet rays to respective positions at which printing is performed on the medium after the inkjet head ejects the pretreatment agent, and evaporates at least part of the solvent in the pretreatment agent.
