PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid discharge device which can suppress damage on at least one of a recording medium and a liquid discharge part when the recording medium and the liquid discharge part are in contact with each other.SOLUTION: A recording device 1 includes: a liquid discharge part (carriage 11) which discharges ink on a recording medium P; a conveying part which conveys the recording medium P in a conveyance direction; a piezoelectric film sensor 32 which is arranged on the liquid discharge part and outputs in response to a degree of deformation by contact of the recording medium P; and a control part which controls the liquid discharge part and/or the conveying part based on output of the piezoelectric film sensor 32 and attribute information of the recording medium P.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8 【課題】記録媒体と液体吐出部とが接触して記録媒体および液体吐出部の少なくとも一方が損傷すること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】記録装置１は、インクを記録媒体Ｐに吐出する液体吐出部（キャリッジ１１）と、記録媒体Ｐを搬送方向に搬送する搬送部と、液体吐出部に設けられ、記録媒体Ｐの接触による変形の度合いに応じた出力をする圧電フィルムセンサー３２と、圧電フィルムセンサー３２の出力および記録媒体Ｐの属性情報に基づいて、液体吐出部および／または搬送部の制御を行う制御部と、を備える。【選択図】図８
