Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a medium accommodation portion that accommodates a medium, a medium discharge port for discharging the medium, a medium transport section that transports the medium, an ejection head that ejects a liquid to the medium to form an image, and an image detection section that detects the image. The printing apparatus has a first mode and a second mode, the first mode being a mode in which the medium transport section transports the medium in a direction from the medium accommodation portion toward the medium discharge port, and the ejection head ejects the liquid to the medium, and the second mode being a mode in which the medium transport section transports the medium in a direction from the medium discharge port toward the medium accommodation portion, and the image detection section detects image information of the image formed on the medium.

Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a medium accommodation portion that accommodates a medium, a medium discharge port for discharging the medium to an outside of the printing apparatus, a medium transport section that transports the medium along a transport path from the medium accommodation portion toward the medium discharge port, an ejection head that ejects a liquid to the medium to form an image on the medium, a heat generation section that dries the liquid ejected to the medium by heat, and an image detection section that detects the image formed on the medium. The ejection head, the heat generation section, and the image detection section are provided along the transport path. The ejection head is located between the heat generation section and the image detection section in a direction along the transport path.
