A printing apparatus and control method facilitating the development of application software that can be used with different printers when the horizontal and vertical pitches of their respective mechanical transports vary. Based on a received base pitch calculation command, the printing apparatus calculates and stores a conversion coefficient for converting the minimum physical pitch values of the printer mechanism to virtual base pitch values. Thereafter, the printing apparatus executes motion commands and directs relative motion of the head and/or selected recording medium transport in accordance with this virtual pitch value.
