Original Abstract Submitted
A printing apparatus includes a printing unit configured to perform printing on a sheet, a conveying unit configured to convey a sheet to a print position of the printing unit, a motor configured to drive the conveying unit, and a control unit configured to control rotation of the motor. The control unit is capable of executing holding control of holding the motor at a stop position. The control unit is configured to decide a first output value, which is an output value of the motor in the holding control, in accordance with a second output value which is an output value of the motor before stopping at the stop position.
