To provide an image recording device capable of accurately positioning sheet-like media by the side-edge truing to an exposure part even if the size of the conveyed sheet-like media changes.
This image recording device has a conveying means capable of conveying the sheet-like media of multiple sizes; an exposure means for scanning the conveyed sheet-like media to form latent images; a correcting means for correcting the position in an orthogonal direction to a conveyed direction of the sheet-like media to the scanning of the exposure means; and a control means for controlling the conveying means, exposure means and correcting means. The correcting means has a pair of engaging members 1, 2 normally and reversely movable in a direction almost orthogonal to the conveyed direction of the sheet-like media and engaged with both ends of the sheet-like media to correct the position in the orthogonal direction to the conveyed direction, and a driving means for driving the engaging members. The control means controls the driving means to change the moving quantity after the engaging members abut on both ends of the sheet-like media F1, F3, according to the size when correcting the position by the correcting means.
