Abstract
A printing apparatus includes a printing unit configured to print on a medium, a cutting unit configured to cut the medium, and an accommodating unit configured to accommodate cutting waste, in which the cutting unit is configured to cut the medium at a boundary between a downstream margin that is an area between a second end that is a downstream end of the medium and a print area, and the print area, and is configured to cut the medium at a boundary between an upstream margin that is an area between a first end that is an upstream end of the medium and the print area, and the print area, and gaps communicating with the accommodating unit are configured upstream and downstream of a position in which the medium is cut by the cutting unit in the transport path.
