Zusammenfassung:A printing apparatus includes a transfer drum configured to be rotationally driven, transfer sections arranged on a peripheral surface of the transfer drum and configured to move cyclically on a circular orbit by rotation of the transfer drum, a print unit configured to form an ink image on the transfer section, a liquid absorbing sheet configured to absorb a liquid component from the ink image on the transfer section before a transfer operation of transferring the ink image formed on the transfer section to a print medium, and a driving unit configured to move the liquid absorbing sheet cyclically. A peripheral length of the liquid absorbing sheet corresponds to an integer multiple or an integer fraction of a peripheral length of the circular orbit.
