<p>The present invention provides an image recording device and an abnormality detection method which detect transitional disconnection failure and contact failure of a transmission means disposed in a movable part. An image recording device (100) according to an aspect of the present invention is provided with a movement mechanism (170) for integrally moving a control unit and a recording head (132M, 132K, 132C, 132Y) relatively to a signal generation unit (122), and is provided with a communication test means (122, 136M, 136K, 136C, 136Y) which, while the recording head is relatively moved from a first position where a transmission means (140M, 140K, 140C, 140Y) comes into a first physical situation to a second position where the transmission means comes into a second physical situation, conducts a communication test between the signal generation unit and the control unit in a position between the first position and the second position.</p> |
