| (54) | PRINTING APPARATUS AND PRINTING METHOD |
| (57) A printing mechanism unit that forms a first printing area in a recording medium
which is transported by ejecting first ink onto a first path in a direction crossing
a transport direction of the recording medium, forms a second printing area in the
recording medium by ejecting second ink onto a second path different from the first
path, and thereby forms an image which is configured with the first printing area
and the second printing area; a pass analysis unit that decides a first ejection position
of the first ink in the first path and decides a second ejection position of the second
ink in the second path, when the image is formed; and a correction determination unit
that performs ejection position change correction in which the first ejection position
is changed such that the first ink is ejected onto the second path and the second
ejection position is changed such that a part of the second ink is ejected onto the
first path, are provided.
