A printing apparatus having a platen for supporting a sheet of paper, comprising: a carriage movable along the length of the platen, and including an upward protrusion having a top surface which includes a first slant part inclined downwardly in a direction toward the platen; a print head including a mounting portion resting on the upward protrusion, the mounting portion having a bottom surface which includes a second slant part in abutting contact with the first slant part; and a fixing device for clamping the mounting portion of the print head to the upward projection of the carriage substantially in a direction of height of the upward protrusion. An angle of inclination of the first and second slant parts being selected such that a clamping action of the fixing device produces a component force sufficient to force a portion of the print head against a side surface of the protrusion on its side opposite to the side facing the platen.
