PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To smoothly convey a recording medium at a carrier roller part and to reduce the cost of a medium conveying device. SOLUTION: This medium conveying device has a recording medium storage part for storing a plurality of recording media; a paper feeding part for delivering the recording medium in the recording medium storage part; a first conveying part disposed downstream of the paper feeding part to convey the delivered recording medium; a second conveying part disposed downstream of the first conveying part; a medium front edge detecting part for detecting the front edge of the recording medium in conveyance; and a paper feeding part operation stop processing means for stopping the operation of the paper feeding part at predetermined timing. Since the front edge of the recording medium in conveyance is detected to stop the operation of the paper feeding part at the predetermined timing, load applied to the first conveying part can be reduced, and the recording medium can be smoothly conveyed by the first conveying part. There is therefore no need to enlarge a rubber roller of the first conveying part. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
