Abstract

According to a method and apparatus for recognizing a paster portion of a web, each pixel data of a printed matter serving as a reference is stored as reference image data. Each pixel data of a printed matter serving as a test target printed on the web is stored as test image data. The reference image data is compared with the test image data in units of pixels to detect defective pixels. The paster portion of the web is recognized on the basis of a generation pattern of the defective pixels.
