A marking device of the present invention includes a sequence of two belt conveyers for conveying a tire after undergoing a test by a tire testing machine, a pair of laser sensors each installed in a predetermined position in a conveyance direction of the tire by the belt conveyer, and adapted to detect an edge of the tire, and a controller for controlling a motor for driving the belt conveyer based on an output from the laser sensor. The controller is operable to convey the tire by a conveyance distance calculated based on a distance from an installing position of the laser sensor to a print position, an outer diameter of the tire and a predetermined mark position when the edge of the tire is detected by the laser sensor, and then to stop the tire, whereby the mark position of the tire is aligned with the print position.
