Abstract

A color inkjet printing apparatus in which an image capturing part captures an image of a page identifier printed on each page of a printing medium, and an inspection part compares a page identification result acquired from an output of the image capturing part with page identification information included in print data. The page identifier includes single-color parts that are each printed with only one of a plurality of colors used in the printing apparatus. Thus, a printing defect can be quickly detected during inspection of the first page in which the printing defect has occurred, irrespective of the ink color in which the printing defect has occurred.
