An image recording device includes a conveying mechanism disposed in a
predetermined conveying path including a plurality of rollers for
conveying a recording medium by a predetermined conveying distance while
nipping the recording medium. The device also includes an upstream-side
trailing edge detector for detecting a trailing edge of the recording
medium, a downstream-side trailing edge detector for detecting the
trailing edge of the recording medium, and a skip warning region
determination unit for determining whether the trailing edge is located
in a skip warning region. Moreover, the device includes a storage unit
for storing a correction value table including a predetermined correction
value, and a correction unit for correcting the predetermined conveying
distance when the trailing edge is in the skip warning region. The device
also includes a skipping distance calculation unit for calculating the
skipping distance observed on the recording medium, and for adjusting the
predetermined correction value in the correction value table based on the
calculated skipping distance.
