PRINTED MATTER INSPECTION APPARATUS, PRINTED MATTER INSPECTION SYSTEM, METHOD OF INSPECTING PRINTED MATTER AND PRINTED MATTER INSPECTION PROGRAM

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform precise defect detection by excluding an influence of variations in imaging, as much as possible, without correcting printing unit images to be inspected. PSOLUTION: A printed matter inspection system includes an input device 1 that includes a plurality of print units in one form, is targeted for a printed matter, where the same pattern is printed to each print unit and images a plurality of print units included in the printed matter; a printed matter inspection apparatus 2 for inspecting defects in the printed matter in print units; and an output device 3 for outputting inspection results. The printed matter inspection apparatus 2 includes a comparison opposite-party search means 22 of searching a print unit image subjected to variations similar to those such that the printing unit image to be inspected has received in imaging and a defect detection means 23 for detecting defects in the printing unit image, based on the comparison of print unit images subjected to similar variations in imaging.
