Abstract: In an embodiment of the present invention, even though there is a print shift due to a gap between a nozzle in an upstream side and a nozzle in a downstream side of a printhead, a printing apparatus capable of precisely adjusting a slant of a printhead with respect to a conveyance direction in a nozzle surface of the printhead is provided. According to the embodiment, two adjustment patterns are printed at two different carriage speeds, respectively, and a print shift due to a slant of the nozzle surface of the printhead with respect to a conveyance direction of a print medium is adjusted based on these two print results.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an ink jet printing apparatus that can reduce the time for the initial installment. In the present invention, in the initial installation, once an ink tank is attached to a printing apparatus main body, a notification unit makes a notification prompting attaching of a printing head during an operation of supplying ink from the ink tank to a reservoir tank.

Abstract: A printing apparatus including: a carriage having a print head and configured to be movable in an intersecting direction; a slitter unit configured to be movable in the intersecting direction and cut a roll sheet in a conveyance direction; a detection sensor mounted on the carriage and configured to detect a cut portion of the roll sheet that has been cut by the slitter unit; and a control unit configured to control the carriage to move after controlling the slitter unit to move and cut the roll sheet, so that the cut portion made by the slitter unit is detected by the detection sensor, and configured to control a moving distance of the carriage or the slitter, based on a first moving distance by which the slitter unit has moved and a second moving distance of the carriage at a timing where the detection sensor detects the cut portion.
