<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a printing apparatus and a printing method which prevent feed of a sheet that is not a feeding target in sheet re-feeding operation. <P>SOLUTION: The printing apparatus includes: a second roller that is disposed downstream in a transport direction as compared with a first roller and transporting the sheet; and a sheet re-feeding unit that, in cases where the sheet feeding operation is performed, but the sheet has not been transported to the predetermined position, feeds the sheet using a first sheet re-feeding operation in which the first roller and the second roller are rotated, if the sheet length L2 in the direction of transporting the sheet is ≥an amount of transport L1 of the first roller; and that feeds the sheet using a second sheet re-feeding operation in which the second roller is rotated without rotating the first roller if the sheet length L2 in the direction of transporting the sheet is <the amount of transport L1 of the first roller. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
