A printing apparatus includes a head which discharges coating ink which coats a medium and electromagnetic radiation-curable ink for image formation having a surface tension lower than the surface tension of the coating ink, a curing unit which irradiates the electromagnetic radiation-curable ink for image formation with electromagnetic waves to cure the electromagnetic radiation-curable ink for image formation, and a controller which makes the head execute a first discharge processing of discharging the coating ink to coat the medium and makes the head execute a second discharge processing of discharging the electromagnetic radiation-curable ink for image formation onto the medium coated by the coating ink to form an image in this order, and then, makes the curing unit execute a curing processing of irradiating the electromagnetic radiation-curable ink for image formation discharged onto the medium with the electromagnetic waves to cure the electromagnetic radiation-curable ink for image formation.
