Abstract: A printing apparatus has an array of printing elements, a unit for conveying a print medium in a direction intersecting with the array direction, a unit for setting the conveying speed, a unit for adjusting a print position of the print head in the array direction, a unit for adjusting an inclination of a print position of the print head with respect to the conveying direction and for dividing the array of the printing elements into blocks and shift image data in the conveying direction in each divided block, and a unit for changing the division positions of the blocks to positions shifted by an equal amount in a direction opposite to the adjustment in the array direction. A printing control apparatus acquires a maximum concurrent drive number in the printing elements based on image data. The conveying speed is set based on the maximum concurrent drive number.

Abstract: A printing system includes a printing apparatus and a printing control apparatus for creating image data to be printed. The printing apparatus has a print head having an array of printing elements, a conveying unit for conveying a print medium in a direction intersecting with the array direction, and a control unit for setting the conveying speed. The printing control apparatus has an acquisition unit for acquiring a maximum concurrent drive number in the printing elements based on image data, an adjustment value for adjusting an inclination of a print position of the print head with respect to the conveying direction, and a maximum value and minimum value of an adjustment value for adjusting a print position of the print head in the array direction. The control unit sets the conveying speed based on the acquired maximum concurrent drive number.
