Summary:A printer (1) according to an embodiment includes a conveying unit, a holding unit, a supporting unit, a second detecting unit, and a control unit. The conveying unit conveys paper (20). The holding unit (141) includes a light emitting unit (142) configured to radiate light and a first detecting unit (143) configured to detect the light reflected on the paper. (20). The supporting unit (14) supports the holding unit (141) to be movable in an orthogonal direction orthogonal to a conveying direction of the paper. The second detecting unit (161) is disposed on an opposite side of the light emitting unit (142) across the paper conveying path, on which the conveying unit conveys the paper (20), and detects the light radiated by the light emitting unit. The control unit determines, based on a detection result of the second detecting unit (161), whether the light emitting unit (142) is present in a position opposed to the second detecting unit.
