Abstract
The advantage of the invention is to provide a medium feed device and the like for intermittently feeding a recording medium in which meandering can be securely corrected without the occurrence of wrinkles in the recording medium. The medium feed device has a meandering detection sensor which detects position displacement of a recording medium in a width direction, and a control section which controls driving of a width movement unit based on detection results by the meandering detection sensor. The control section stops driving of the width movement unit when stopping feeding of the intermittent feeding.
