Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a feeder that feeds a medium in a feeding direction, a head including a row of nozzles arranged side by side in the feeding direction and movable in a scanning direction, an irradiator that radiates light onto a region longer in the feeding direction than the nozzle row and that is movable in the scanning direction together with the head, and a controller that alternatingly causes the head to move in the scanning direction and concurrently the nozzles to discharge ink while causing the irradiator to radiate the light, and the feeder to feed the medium in the feeding direction. The controller is capable of dividing the nozzle row into an upstream-side nozzle row and a downstream-side nozzle row located on a downstream side in the feeding direction from the upstream-side nozzle row, and individually controlling discharge of ink from the nozzles of each of the upstream-side nozzle row and the downstream-side nozzle row.
