Claim 9:
10. A printing device comprising:
a substrate feed-out section which feeds out a web substrate;
a substrate transport section which transports the substrate fed out of the substrate feed-out section in a transport direction;
a skew correction section adapted to correct skew of the substrate;
an image recording section which performs an image recording operation on the substrate;
a controller which receives an input of a signal indicating a width size of the substrate, performs a skew correction stopping control operation, upon change of the width size of the substrate, to stop the substrate skew correction being performed by the skew correction section while causing the substrate transport section to continuously transport the substrate and, after determination that a width size-changed portion of the substrate reaches a reference position downstream of the skew correction section, cancels the skew correction stopping control operation, and performs a skew correction restarting control operation to cause the skew correction section to restart the substrate skew correction.
