A printing apparatus (100) includes a belt mover (25) for an endless belt (23) that transports a recording medium (95), a feed amount calculator that calculates an amount of feed of the belt mover, a movement amount detection sensor (70) as a movement amount measurer that measures actual amount of movement of the endless belt by image processing, a compensation table storer that stores a compensation table for compensating a transport error of the endless belt, and a control portion that calculates the amount of feed that is to bring about a predetermined amount of movement of the endless belt by using the feed amount calculator and by referring to the compensation table storer, moves the endless belt by using the belt mover on the basis of the amount of feed, compares the actual amount of movement of the endless belt measured by the movement amount detection sensor and the predetermined amount of movement, and determines whether a difference greater than or equal to a predetermined value has occurred between the actual amount of movement and the predetermined amount of movement. |
