Abstract:
A printing apparatus includes: a conveyor configured to convey a web print medium with holes arranged at a predetermined pitch in a conveyance direction; a printer configured to perform printing on the web print medium conveyed by the conveyor; a detector configured to detect the holes; and a controller. The controller is configured to drive the printer to start printing on the web print medium based on a timing at which a count value of the holes detected by the detector from start of conveyance of the web print medium by the conveyor reaches a setting value of a number of the holes located from the detector to a print start reference position on the web print medium at the start of conveyance of the web print medium by the conveyor.

Claim (Index 2):
The printing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the web print medium is divided into print regions each with a predetermined length in the conveyance direction, the print start reference position is located at one of boarder positions each provided between the print regions adjacent to each other, the controller is configured to\n determine whether the count value has reached the setting value, \n upon determining that the count value has reached the setting value, determine whether a conveyance speed of the web print medium has reached a predetermined print conveyance speed at a timing at which the print start reference position reaches the printer, and \n upon determining that the conveyance speed of the web print medium has not reached the predetermined print conveyance speed at the timing at which the print start reference position reaches the printer, change the setting value by adding a number of the holes in each of the print regions to the setting value and drive the printer to start the printing on the web print medium based on a timing at which the count value reaches the changed setting value.
