Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a printing-medium conveyance unit, a printhead, and a control unit. The printhead has a first array of ejection ports ejecting a first ink and a second array of ejection ports ejecting a second ink, with the ports arranged in a printing-medium conveyance direction and the arrays arranged in a predetermined direction intersecting the conveyance direction.
