MEDIUM TRANSPORT DEVICE AND RECORDING APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a medium transport device capable of suppressing the skewing or the meandering of the medium to be small during transportation of the medium, and a recording apparatus.SOLUTION: The medium transport device includes: a transport section 33 that transports a recording medium M in a transport direction; a winding section 18 that winds the recording medium M transported by the transport section 33; and a medium support section 17 that is arranged between the transport section 33 and the winding section 18 and has a medium support surface 17a supporting the recording medium M. The medium support section 17 has a support sliding part 25 including a first surface 25a and a second surface 25b. A coefficient of friction of the first surface 25a with the recording medium M is higher than a coefficient of friction of the medium support surface 17a with the recording medium M, and a coefficient of friction of the second surface 25b with the recording medium M is lower than the coefficient of friction of the first surface 25a with the recording medium M.
