PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid discharge device which can suppress electrification of a medium.SOLUTION: A liquid discharge device comprises a transfer mechanism which transfers media S1, S2 in a transfer direction and a head which discharges liquid to the media, and makes the liquid discharged from the head reach the media. The liquid is electrified at the time of being discharged from the head. The transfer mechanism comprises a first transfer member 241 which is brought into contact with the media on the upper stream side in the transfer direction than the head and a second transfer member 242 which is brought into contact with the media on the upper stream side in the transfer direction than the head and is made of material different from the first transfer member. The first transfer member and the second transfer member are changed in accordance with the material of the media. 【課題】媒体の帯電を抑制することができる液体吐出装置を提供する。【解決手段】媒体Ｓ１，Ｓ２を搬送方向に搬送する搬送機構と、液体を媒体に吐出するヘッドと、を備え、ヘッドから吐出した液体を媒体に着弾させる液体吐出装置であって、液体はヘッドから吐出される際に帯電しており、搬送機構は、ヘッドよりも搬送方向の上流側で媒体と接触する第１搬送部材２４１と、ヘッドよりも搬送方向の上流側で媒体と接触する第２搬送部材２４２であって、第１搬送部材とは材質の異なる第２搬送部材と、を有し、媒体の材質に応じて第１搬送部材と第２搬送部材を変更する。【選択図】図６
