Patent ID: 8882375

Claim:
A print apparatus comprising: a print-medium sender configured to transport a print medium to perform linefeed of the print medium; a print-medium transportation unit disposed downstream of the print-medium sender in a print-medium transportation direction, and configured to transport the print medium to perform linefeed of the print medium; a print unit disposed downstream of the print-medium sender and upstream of the print-medium transportation unit in the print-medium transportation direction, and configured to perform printing on the print medium while moving in a direction perpendicular to the print-medium transportation direction; and a linefeed-amount correction controller configured to set an amount of linefeed of the print medium by the print-medium sender to a first linefeed amount in order to linefeed the print medium by a first linefeed distance when only the print-medium sender transports the print medium, and to set an amount of linefeed of the print medium by the print-medium sender to a second linefeed amount different from the first linefeed amount in order to linefeed the print medium by the first linefeed distance when both the print-medium sender and the print-medium transportation unit transport the print medium at the same time, wherein a third linefeed amount, which is an amount of linefeed of the print-medium transportation unit when both the print-medium sender and the print-medium transportation unit transport the print medium, is greater than the second linefeed amount, which is the amount of linefeed of the print-medium sender when both the print-medium sender and the print-medium transportation unit transport the print medium.
