<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a recording medium from being wrinkled during suction conveyance and flapping during air blowing. <P>SOLUTION: A recording medium conveyance device includes: a conveying unit that conveys a recording medium while sucking the recording medium to a conveyance surface; and an air blowing unit disposed upstream of the conveying unit in a conveyance direction of the recording medium. The air blowing unit is configured to blow air in diagonal directions from a center toward sides on an upstream side of the recording medium, and adjust a direction in which the air is blown so that the width of an air blowing region of the air becomes narrower than the width of the recording medium conveyed to the conveying unit before the air strikes the recording medium. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
