Abstract
A recoding medium conveying device includes a conveyance belt, a first sensor, a second sensor, and circuitry. The conveyance belt has an endless loop shape and a length capable of conveying a plurality of recording media in one rotation. The first sensor is disposed upstream from the conveyance belt in a conveyance direction of a recording medium and is configured to detect the recording medium. The second sensor is configured to detect a home position of the conveyance belt. The circuitry is configured to adjust a rotation speed of the conveyance belt, while the conveyance belt makes one rotation, to eliminate an amount of deviation between a first detection timing of the recording medium detected by the first sensor and a second detection timing of the home position of the conveyance belt detected by the second sensor.
