Abstract
A printing apparatus 100 is capable of mounting a multi-color printing material container having a storage device that stores identification information of the printing material container and ink consumption information of each color. The printing apparatus includes a first nonvolatile memory 120 that stores the identification information of printing material containers and first usage information that is based on the ink consumption information of each color, and a printing apparatus controller 110 that performs control of print processing. The printing apparatus controller executes storage device error processing in the case where the relation between usage information on the printing material container side that is based on the ink consumption information of each color read from storage devices 310 and 320 and first usage information associated with identification information that is the same as the identification information of the printing material containers that are mounted does not satisfy a preset relation.
