The present invention provides a printing apparatus and a printing method that can form a preferable micropattern by a printing process using an intaglio plate. A printing apparatus according to an aspect of the present invention includes: a printing plate (12) having a recessed portion (12A) formed therein shaped corresponding to a pattern (31C) to be formed on a substrate (14); an inking unit (20) including an inkjet head (30), performing an inking process of ejecting a liquid into the recessed portion of the printing plate, the liquid having particles as a material of the pattern dispersed therein; a laminating unit (24) performing a laminating process of laminating the substrate on a surface having the recessed portion of the printing plate formed therein after the inking process; a post-drying unit (26) performing a drying process on the liquid inside the recessed portion in a state in which the substrate is laminated on the surface having the recessed portion of the printing plate formed therein, to reduce liquid fluidity; and a peeling unit (28) peeling off the substrate from the printing plate after the drying process by the post-drying unit. |
