Abstract

A system for monitoring the paper feed in printing mechanisms and the like, in which reference signals are derived in response to actuation of the feeding means for the paper web and in synchronism with the feed movement thereof, which signals may be compared with supervisory signals generated in response to advancing movement of the paper web, whereby predetermined abnormal relation between the reference and supervisory signals forms a criterion of improper paper advance conditions.
