Abstract:
A printing apparatus including a can body conveyance unit, an image forming unit, a light irradiation unit and one or more other can body stop locations. Light for curing an image on a can body is inhibited from reaching the image forming unit. An upstream side restricting wall ( 31 ) is positioned on the upstream side, namely, the side on which an ink jet head ( 240 ) is provided, of a can body ( 10 ) when the can body ( 10 ) is stopped at a mandrel stop location ( 811 ) or light irradiation stop location ( 811 ). The upstream side restricting wall ( 31 ) is thereby positioned between the can body ( 10 ) and the ink jet head ( 240 ), and ultraviolet light is restricted from heading toward the ink jet head ( 240 ).

Claim (Index 15):
The printing apparatus according to  claim 13 , wherein,\n when image formation onto a can body is performed at each of the plurality of image forming units, the can body is rotated at a predetermined number of rotations, and, when the can body is moved from one of the two image forming units to the other thereof, the can body is rotated for a number of rotations smaller than the predetermined number of rotations.
