Abstract

To inhibit insufficiency of medium inclination correction compared with a case where the medium inclination correction is performed at a position where the medium is transported in a curved posture.SOLUTION: A medium transport device includes: a position correction unit (11) which moves a medium (S) in a width direction of the medium (S) to correct a position of the medium (S) in the width direction; and an inclination correction unit (21) which corrects an inclination of the medium (S) relative to a transport direction of the medium (S) at the upstream side of the position correction unit (11) with respect to the transport direction of the medium (S) and which is disposed at a position where the medium (S) is transported in a flat posture.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6
