An ink jet printing apparatus carrying out printing using a plurality of ejecting portions for ejecting different kinds of inks respectively, wherein a condition for wiping of an ejection face provided with ink ejection openings of a plurality of ejecting portions is appropriately determined and an defective ejection due to wet and dirty ejection face is effectively prevented. A timing of wiping is controlled considering an ink condition. Specifically, the timing of wiping is determined not simply based on a dot count value being a number of ejection carried out by a plurality of ejecting portions to perform printing, but also a condition of an amount of mist generated in accordance with ink types as well.
