A printing apparatus for performing printing to a print medium, the printing apparatus comprising: a transportation device (7, 11) transporting the print medium; a plurality of printing heads spaced away from one another in a transportation direction of the print medium and printing an image on the print medium; and a control unit operating the plurality of printing heads and the transporting device (7, 11) to print an inspecting chart including a reference pattern containing a first line segment group (L1S) and a second line segment group (L2S), a first-side deviation pattern, and a second-side deviation pattern, the first line segment group (L1S) being formed by a plurality of first line segments printed by a reference printing head on the print medium at a first given interval (SPi), the first line segments each having a first line width parallel to a transportation direction of the print medium, the second line segment group (L2S) being formed by second line segments printed by a printing head on a center between two adjacent first line segments or a center of each of the first line segments, the printing head being spaced away from the reference printing head in the transportation direction of the print medium, and the second line segments each having a second line width and being parallel to the first line segments, the first-side deviation pattern being spaced away from the reference pattern in a direction orthogonal to the transportation direction of the print medium, and including the first line segment group (L1S) and a second line segment group (L2S), the second line segment group being formed by the second line segments printed by a given deviation from the center between the two adjacent first line segments or the center of each of the first line segments toward a first side of the direction orthogonal to the transportation direction of the print medium, the second-side deviation pattern being spaced away from the reference pattern in the direction orthogonal to the transportation direction of the print medium opposite to the first-side deviation pattern across the reference pattern, and including the first line segment group and a second line segment group, the second line segment group being formed by the second line segments printed by a given deviation from the center between the two adjacent first line segments or the center of each of the first line segments toward a second side of the direction orthogonal to the transportation direction of the print medium, the first-side deviation pattern and the second-side deviation pattern being printed with various deviations. a transportation device (7, 11) transporting the print medium;
