Recording medium conveyance device and image forming system

Abstract

A recording medium conveyance device includes a recording medium conveyance unit, a detecting member, a voltage application unit, and a control unit. The recording medium conveyance unit conveys a recording medium. The detecting member is disposed to face the recording medium conveyance unit with a predetermined interval therebetween. The voltage application unit applies a detection voltage between the recording medium conveyance unit and the detecting member. The control unit controls the recording medium conveyance unit and the voltage application unit. When the recording medium conveyance unit conveys the recording medium, the control unit controls the voltage application unit to apply the detection voltage, detects contact between the recording medium and the detecting member, on the basis of a change in the detection voltage with respect to a predetermined threshold value, and determines conveyance abnormality of the recording medium.
