INSPECTION DEVICE FOR HIGH-SPEED PRINTS

An inspection device for detecting faulty prints on a printed matter running at a high speed. The prints on the printed matter are held as if they were stopped on account of the employment of an even-numbered polygonal prism which rotates in synchronism with the running speed of the printed matter and which allows an inspector's eye to catch successively the prints on an optical axis not only at their positions on said optical axis but also at their moving positions before and behind said optical axis.
