Abstract
There is provided a printing apparatus including: a nozzle configured to discharge a liquid by an energy generating element; a selector configured to select, based on a print job, a driving waveform corresponding to a printing method indicated by the print job, from a plurality of driving waveforms different from each other; a signal generator configured to generate a time division multiplex signal, based on data indicating the driving waveform selected by the selector; and a separator configured to separate a driving waveform signal indicating the driving waveform selected by the selector from the time division multiplex signal generated by the signal generator. The energy generating element is configured to be driven by the driving waveform signal separated by the separator.
