More Information
Summary:A printing apparatus includes a transfer section and a non-transfer section configured to be moved cyclically, a print unit configured to form an ink image on the transfer section, a transfer unit configured to perform a transfer operation and a liquid absorbing unit configured to absorb a liquid component from the ink image. The liquid absorbing unit includes a liquid absorbing sheet, a driving unit configured to move the sheet cyclically, and a displacing unit configured to displace the sheet between a contact state in which the sheet can contact the transfer section and a retracted state. When the non-transfer section is located at a liquid absorbing position where the sheet and the transfer section contact with each other, the displacing unit displaces the sheet from the retracted state to the contact state.
