1. A post-processing device comprising:
a post-processing section that is configured to move over a mounting section on which a medium is mounted in a width direction intersecting a transport direction of the medium and that executes post-processing on the medium mounted on the mounting section;
a driving section that moves the post-processing section in the width direction when supplied with a current or a voltage from a power supply; and
a controller that controls an operation of the post-processing section and an operation of the driving section, wherein
the controller is configured to execute
a first control to move the post-processing section in the width direction by supplying a set current or a set voltage set from the power supply to the driving section,
a second control to hold a position of the post-processing section in the width direction by supplying, to the driving section, a supply current with a same value as a value of the set current or a supply voltage with a same value as a value of the set voltage, and
a third control to stop the supply of the supply current or the supply voltage to the driving section, and
the controller causes the post-processing section to execute the post-processing during the execution of the second control.
