Abstract
A recording device discharge position adjustor includes a recording device to discharge liquid droplets onto a recording medium; an edge detector unit to detect a lateral edge position of the recording medium in a direction perpendicular to a recording medium conveyance direction; a discharge position adjustor to adjust a discharge position of the liquid droplets from the recording device relative to the recording medium; a controller to adjust the discharge position using the discharge position adjustor; and an edge position converter to convert the edge position of the recording medium detected by the edge detector unit to an edge position at a position of the recording device, in which the controller adjusts the discharge position of the recording device by an adjustment amount corresponding to the edge position of the recording medium at the position of the recording device converted by the edge position converter.
