Abstract
An image recording device includes a drive roller that conveys a recording medium by rotating, a driven roller that grasps the recording medium between it and the drive roller, a recording unit capable of recording an image on the recording medium arranged further to the downstream side than the drive roller in a first direction which is the recording media conveyance direction, and a control unit that records an image on the recording media while conveying the recording media in the first direction. The control unit, when the conveying of the recording media in the first direction stops, starts conveying the recording media in a second direction which is the reverse direction of the first direction, and stops conveying of the recording media in the second direction in a state with the image recorded on the recording media positioned between the drive roller and the driven roller.
