Abstract:
In various embodiments, printing is performed in a print mode with a higher ink flow rate per unit time period in a case where a time period from a time when an ink sucking operation is performed is longer, and printing is performed in a print mode with a lower ink flow rate per unit time period in a case where the time period is shorter.

Claim (Index 4):
The printing apparatus according to  claim 2 ,\n wherein the print head has a first discharge port array configured to discharge a first type of ink and a second discharge port array configured to discharge a second type of ink that is different from the first type; and wherein the control unit controls the conveyance unit so as to (i) convey the printing medium at the first speed in a case where the elapsed time after the ink sucking operation is longer than the first threshold value, (ii) convey the printing medium at the first speed in a case where the elapsed time after the ink sucking operation is shorter than the first threshold value, a discharge amount of the first type of ink to the unit region is lower than a second threshold value, and a discharge amount of the second type of ink to the unit region is lower than a third threshold value, (iii) convey the printing medium at the second speed in a case where the elapsed time after the ink sucking operation is shorter than the first threshold value, the discharge amount of the first type of ink to the unit region is higher than the second threshold value, and the discharge amount of the second type of ink to the unit region is higher than the third threshold value, (iv) convey the printing medium at the second speed in a case where the elapsed time after the ink sucking operation is shorter than the first threshold value, where the discharge amount of the first type of ink to the unit region is lower than the second threshold value, and where the discharge amount of the second type of ink to the unit region is higher than the third threshold value, and (v) convey the printing medium at the second speed in a case where the elapsed time after the ink sucking operation is shorter than the first threshold value, the discharge amount of the first type of ink to the unit region is higher than the second threshold value, and the discharge amount of the second type of ink to the unit region is lower than the third threshold value.
