| (54) | PRINTING APPARATUS AND PRINTING METHOD |
| (57) A printing mechanism unit that forms an image by ejecting first ink and second ink
which have hues different from each other toward a recording medium, while moving
multiple number of times with respect to the recording medium; a pass analysis unit
that decides an ejection position of the ink in multiple paths through which the printing
unit moves, when the image is formed; an execution unit that, when two paths different
from each other of the multiple paths are referred to as a first path and a second
path, performs ejection position change correction in which the ejection position
is changed such that at least one ink of the first ink and the second ink which are
ejected into the first path is ejected into the second path; and a determination unit
that determines whether or not the execution unit performs the ejection position change
correction, based on an amount of ejection per unit area of at least one ink of the
first ink and the second ink with respect to the image, are provided.
