Recording medium transport device, recording device, and liquid ejecting apparatus

A liquid ejecting apparatus, comprising:

• liquid ejecting member for performing liquid ejection on a medium to be ejected;
• a transport driving roller rotatably driven;
• a transport driven roller that can be driven to rotate for nipping a medium to be ejected between with the transport driving roller;
• a driven roller supporting member for pivotally supporting the transport driven roller and provided so as to be able to be displaced;
• adjusting member for adjusting the angle α made by a straight line passing the rotation axis line position of the transport driving roller and the rotation axis line position of the transport driven roller and a straight line parallel to the gravity direction;
• and
• controlling member for reducing the angle α by controlling the adjust means after a leading edge of the recording medium has passed through the nip point and before the back end of the medium to be ejected is passed through the nip point of the transport driving roller and the transport driven roller based on the information from detecting member for detecting the position of the medium to be ejected on the transport pathway.
