Abstract

See full text

A printing apparatus is configured to perform printing on a recording medium. The printing apparatus includes: droplet discharge heads having nozzles configured to discharge liquids having different colors from each other as droplets onto the recording medium, and an abnormal discharge detecting unit configured to detect an abnormal discharge of the droplets at the respective nozzles. The head unit is capable of taking a mode of performing the printing in the case where the abnormal discharge is detected by the abnormal discharge detecting unit by using, for example, remaining droplet discharge heads except the nozzle that has been detected to have the abnormal discharge and nozzles that discharge droplets having the same color as droplets discharged by the nozzle that has been detected to have the abnormal discharge.
