Recording device

A recording device comprising:

• a plurality of media supply paths for supplying recording media,
• a shared passage part shared by the plurality of media supply paths,
• a moving unit that moves the recording media,
• a recording unit that performs recording on recording media supplied through the shared passage part,
• a supply port that, with at least one of the media supply paths of the plurality of media supply paths, is able to supply that recording media to that media supply path by recording media being inserted,
• a lid member provided so that the supply port can be opened and closed,
• an open lid detection unit for detecting an open lid state when the lid member opens the supply port, and
• a movement control unit that, when the open lid detection unit detects the open lid state, before supplying of recording media is performed to the recording unit from another media supply path other than the media supply path on which the supply port is provided for which the open lid state is detected, drives the moving unit to perform the operation of moving the recording media to outside the shared passage part regardless of whether or not at least a portion of the recording media exists in the shared passage part.
