Abstract: A medium transport device includes a feeding roller that feeds a recording medium, a transport roller that transports the recording medium toward a recording head, and a transport motor which is a common driving source for the feeding roller and the transport roller. The medium transport device includes a power transmission mechanism that transmits power of the transport motor to the feeding roller, and a control section that controls a current of the transport motor. The control section measures a current value flowing through the transport motor during driving as a measured current value, and adds a predetermined offset value to the measured current value to set a second limit value as a limit value of the current supplied to the transport motor.

Abstract: A recording device includes a recording head, a transport roller set, and a controller that controls a driving source that drives a transport driving roller. The controller judges whether a rear end that is an upstream end of a medium in a transport direction crosses a kicking region set in a range present downstream of a nipping position of the transport roller set in a transport direction. When the controller judges that the rear end does not cross the kicking region, the controller adjusts a feeding amount for at least one of a plurality of transport operations to be performed until the rear end reaches the kicking region in such a manner that the rear end of the medium crosses the kicking region.
