Abstract:
A printing apparatus includes six or more inkjet heads, a carriage that is a head holder to hold a plurality of inkjet heads, a main scanning driver, and a sub-scanning driver. The carriage dividedly holds a plurality of inkjet heads in a plurality of arrays including at least a first array in which a plurality of inkjet heads are disposed side by side in a main scanning direction, and a second array in which a plurality of inkjet heads are disposed side by side in the main scanning direction while being dislocated in a sub-scanning direction with respect to the first array. Merely not more than two inkjet heads in the first array ejects an ink droplet, and merely not more than two inkjet heads in the second array ejects an ink droplet with respect to a position of each pixel in a single time of a main scanning operation.

Claim (Index 9):
The printing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the printing apparatus is configured to enable setting, as a printing mode performed in the printing apparatus, a first printing mode for printing using both of a plurality of inkjet heads disposed side by side in the first array and a plurality of inkjet heads disposed side by side in the second array, and a second printing mode for performing printing using a plurality of inkjet heads disposed side by side in the first array without using a plurality of inkjet heads disposed side by side in the second array.
