A recording device that records images on both sides of a recording medium using two recording heads suppresses slack in the recording medium and conveys the recording medium reliably. A first recording unitholds and conveys the roll paperbetween a first recording headthat records images to one side of the roll paperand a first platen roller. A second recording unitlocated downstream from the first recording unitholds and conveys the roll paperbetween a second recording headthat records images to the other side of the roll paperand a second platen roller. The first platen roller drive unit turns so that the circumferential speed of the second platen rolleris faster than the circumferential speed of the first platen roller
