The utility model provides an image forming device capable of sensing media and a related media sensing mechanism, the image forming device comprises a shell and the media sensing mechanism, and a media inlet is formed on the shell. The media sensing mechanism comprises a sensor, a first pivoting piece, a second pivoting piece and an elastic piece. When at least one medium enters the medium inlet and contacts the first pivoting member, the at least one medium drives the first pivoting member to pivot along the first pivoting direction so as to drive the elastic member to drive the second pivoting member to pivot along the first pivoting direction, so that the second pivoting member actuates the sensor and the sensor generates a signal. When the second pivoting piece is stopped and cannot continue to pivot in the first pivoting direction, elastic deformation of the elastic piece allows the first pivoting piece to be driven by at least one medium to continue to pivot in the first pivoting direction relative to
