Abstract:
1. A printing apparatus that discharges ink from a printhead to a print medium while reciprocally scanning a carriage on which the printhead is mounted, thereby printing in part of a region where the scanning accelerates, in a region where the carriage moves in a predetermined velocity, and in part of a region where the scanning decelerates, comprising: a detection unit configured to detect a scanning velocity of the carriage; and an adjustment unit configured to adjust a print timing by the printhead based on the scanning velocity and a distance between the printhead and the print medium, wherein said adjustment unit suppresses adjustment of the print timing in a case where the scanning velocity detected by said detection unit falls within a predetermined range in a region which is narrower than that for the printing and includes the region where the scanning accelerates, the region where the carriage moves in the predetermined velocity, and the region where the scanning decelerates.
