A positioning apparatus and a printer using the same are provided. The positioning apparatus includes a slide rod, a carrying base, and a light detecting module. The slide rod has a plurality of positioning grooves on one side surface thereof, and the carrying base is slidingly disposed on the slide rod. The light detecting module is integrated with the carrying base and corresponds to the side surface of the slide rod having the positioning grooves. The light detecting module determines a relative position of the light detecting module with respect to the slide rod according to the intensity change of a reflection light reflected by the slide rod.
