Abstract

An inkjet recording device includes a movement unit configured to move a recording medium or a placement part for placing the recording medium thereon; a detection unit configured to continuously detect movement of the recording medium or the placement part; and a control unit configured to control the movement unit and the detection unit. The detection unit includes a gripping unit having a gripping part for gripping the recording medium or the placement part and a detection part for continuously detecting movement of the gripping unit. The gripping unit is configured to move in conjunction with the movement of the recording medium or the placement part by gripping the recording medium or the placement part by the gripping part. The control unit is configured to control the movement of the movement unit on the basis of a detection result by the detection part when the gripping unit is moved.
