PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sheet supply device, along with an image formation device equipped with the same, and a control method of the sheet supply device, capable of continuously supplying a recording sheet at a time interval which is as short as possible while preventing occurrence of variation in a time at which the recording sheet reaches a sheet detection sensor in a case where a mechanism for transmitting a power of a drive part to a pickup roller has a play along a rotational direction.SOLUTION: In a case where a sheet supply action is an action succeeding to a sheet supply action at other sheet sending part (YES at S3), a control part sets an output timing of a control signal to a supply clutch when a recording sheet is sent behind the output timing of the control signal when a second or later record sheets are continuously sent from the same sheet sending part (S4-S8). |
