| 摘要 | A carriage moving mechanism has a first guiding mechanism that guides, in a discharging direction Z, a movement of a carriage relative to a frame member, a second guiding mechanism that is arranged at a position different from the first guiding mechanism and guides, in the discharging direction, the movement of the carriage relative to the frame member, and a driving mechanism that drives the carriage in the discharging direction, in which a distance by which the carriage is able to move at a non-printing position through the use of the second guiding mechanism, relative to a positioning position is greater than a distance by which the carriage is able to move through the use of the first guiding mechanism and the second guiding mechanism in the printing position, relative to the positioning position. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A printing apparatus comprising: a supporting member that supports a recording medium; a head that discharges liquid onto the recording medium that is supported by the supporting member; a carriage that holds the head; a frame member that movably supports the carriage; and a carriage moving mechanism that moves the carriage between a printing position at which printing is performed by the head and a non-printing position which is different from the printing position, wherein the carriage moving mechanism has a first guiding mechanism that guides the movement of the carriage relative to the frame member, a second guiding mechanism that is arranged at a position different from that of the first guiding mechanism and guides the movement of the carriage relative to the frame member, and a driving mechanism that drives the carriage in the discharging direction, and wherein a distance by which the carriage is able to move in a second direction different from the discharging direction at the non-printing position through the use of the second guiding mechanism is greater than a distance by which the carriage is able to move in the second direction through the use of the first guiding mechanism and the second guiding mechanism in the printing position. | ||
