Abstract
Description
Claims (14)
- Printed matter checking apparatus comprising a scanning station (18, 20) for receiving sequentially a plurality of sheets (10) having printed images (16), said scanning station (18, 20) generating data (26, 28) descriptive of said images and data processing means (30) receiving said data for analyzing said data to determine whether said images meet preselected criteria, characterised in that each sheet (10) has a plurality of documents each document being defined by an image (16) either on one surface or on both surfaces (22, 24) of the sheet (10), and in that the apparatus comprises a marking station (32) coupled to said data processing means (30) receiving sheets sequentially (10) from said scanning station (18, 20), said marking station (32) marking with a reject mark any documents defined by at least one image (16') which said data processing means (30) has determined does not meet said criteria.
- The apparatus of claim 1 wherein each said sheet (10) has a top surface (22) with top images (16) and a bottom surface (24) with bottom images (16), each top image being registered with a bottom image to define one document.
- The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said marking station (32) marks said top image.
- The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said images (16) are arranged in rows on said sheet (10), and said marking apparatus (32) includes a plurality of printing heads (34), one printing head for each of said row.
- The apparatus of claim 4 wherein each of said printing heads (34) consists of an impact printer.
- The apparatus of claim 4 wherein each of said printing heads (34) consists of an ink jet printer.
- A printing and checking apparatus comprising a printing device (12, 14) for printing a plurality of documents on a sheet (10), each document being defined by an image (16) either on one surface or on both surfaces (22, 24) of the sheet (10), scanning means (18, 20) for receiving said sheet (10) from said printing device (12, 14) and for generating data (26, 28) descriptive of said images (16), data processing means (30) for receiving said data and comparing said data to preselected criteria to determine if each of said images is acceptable and marking means (32, 34) for receiving said sheet (10), and for marking with a reject mark any documents defined by at least one image (16') which said data processing means (30) has determined does not meet said criteria.
- The apparatus of claim 7 wherein said sheet (10) has a top (22) and a bottom surface (24) and said printing device prints top (12, 14) and bottom images (16) on said top and bottom surfaces respectively.
- The apparatus of claim 8 wherein said scanning means includes a top (18) and bottom scanner (20) for scanning said top (22) and bottom (24) surfaces respectively.
- The apparatus of claim 8 wherein each said top image (16) is in register which each said bottom image (16) to define a document, and wherein said marking means (34) marks said top image (16) of said document when one of said top and bottom images (16') of said documents are unacceptable.
- The apparatus of claim 7 wherein said images (16) are arranged in rows on said sheet (10), and said marking means (32, 34) includes a plurality of printing heads (34), one printing head for each of said row.
- A method of checking images (16) on sheet comprising the steps of scanning said sheets (10) sequentially to generate data descriptive of said images (16), comparing data for each image (16) to preselected criteria to determine if the image meet the preselected criteria, characterised in that the sheet comprises a plurality of documents each of which is defined by an image (16) either on one surface or both surfaces of the sheet (10) and in that the method includes the step of marking with a reject mark any documents defined by at least one image (16') which has been determined does not meet preselected criteria.
- The method of claim 12 wherein each document is defined by a top and bottom image (16) disposed on a top (22) and bottom (24) surface of said sheet (10), and wherein said top image of a document is marked with said reject mark if one of said top and bottom images of said document is unacceptable.
- The method of claim 12 wherein said sheet (10) has a top and bottom surface with top and bottom images, said top and bottom images being scanned during said scanning step.
