To provide a printer capable of eliminating or reducing floating that may occur in a medium during printing.SOLUTION: A printer comprises: a discharge head for discharging liquid to a medium M; a driving roller 45 for conveying the medium; and driven rollers 46 which are arranged in a width direction X of the medium M. The printer comprises a pressing pressure adjusting mechanism 80 (one example of pressing mechanisms) for collectively pressing the multiple driven rollers 46 onto the driven rollers 45 side; and a pressure release mechanism 90 which releases pressure of certain driven rollers 46 among the multiple driven rollers 46.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】印刷中に媒体に発生した浮きを印刷しながら消滅又は縮小できる印刷装置を提供する。【解決手段】印刷装置は、液体を媒体Ｍに吐出する吐出ヘッドと、媒体を搬送するための駆動ローラー４５と媒体Ｍの幅方向Ｘに並んだ複数の従動ローラー４６を有する。印刷装置は、複数の従動ローラー４６を一括で駆動ローラー４５側に押し付ける押圧力調整機構８０（押圧機構の一例）と、複数の従動ローラー４６のうち任意の従動ローラー４６の押圧を解除する押圧解除機構９０とを備える。【選択図】図２
