TRANSPORT DEVICE AND PRINTING APPARATUS

摘要

A printing apparatus includes a control unit that calculates a transport amount (an actual transport amount) during a transport period based on a captured image of a medium by an imaging unit and controls a transport unit. In addition, the control unit calculates the transport amount (the actual transport amount) during the transport period by calculating the transport amount at each calculation interval (a divided transport amount) and integrating the transport amount at each calculation interval (the divided transport amount). Then, the control unit causes the calculation interval to be longer in a case where the transporting speed of the medium is low than in a case where the transporting speed of the medium is high.

主权项

1. A transport device comprising:
a transport unit that intermittently transports a medium; an imaging unit that images the medium transported by the transport unit; and a control unit that calculates a transport amount during a transport period from start of the medium transport to stop of the medium transport based on a captured image of the medium by the imaging unit and controls the transport unit, wherein the control unit calculates the transport amount during the transport period by calculating a divided transport amount at each divided period which is obtained by dividing the transport period into a plurality of periods and integrating the divided transport amount at each divided period, and causes the divided period to be longer in a case where a transport speed of the medium is low than in a case where the transport speed of the medium is high.
