To provide a color image recording device being free from the occurrence of deviation in a position of the respective image by respective printing mechanism in a color image recording device of a tandem structure.

This color image recording device, is provided with a magnetic sensor 12 forming timing marks for each specified range on a transport belt 7 disposed on a position permissible of reading out the timing mark for sending out timing signal on reading the timing mark, and a motor controlling part 13 receiving the timing signal from the magnetic sensor 12, for comparing the signal receiving interval with the normal timing signal at the preliminarily decided transporting speed time of the transport belt, in the case that the signal receiving interval is different from the normal signal receiving interval of the timing signal received from the magnetic sensor 12, for controlling rotational speed of the transport belt, so that the receiving interval of the timing signal received from the magnetic sensor matches with the receiving interval the normal timing signal.
