X from the predetermined position of Ba in the X and Y directions, respectively
A base point K separated by 1, Y1 is obtained, and an inspection range W is set with the base point K as a reference. Considering that the character string M is slightly displaced and tilted during printing, the inspection range W is prepared to be larger than the character string in the X and Y directions as shown in FIG. Next, the image data in the inspection range W is binarized based on a predetermined threshold value, the number of pixels in the printed portion is counted from the binarized data, and the quality is judged based on the counted value. Specifically, when the number of pixels in the printed portion of a non-defective product is 202, the above count value is 190 to 250.
If it falls within the range of, it is judged as good print.

Next, the binarized image data is read from the binarized data memory 2c, and the number of pixels in the printed portion is counted from the image data (s12, s13 in FIG. 2). Then, it is determined whether or not the count value n is within the non-defective range of n1 to n2, and if it is within the range, it is determined that the print is good, and if it is out of the range, the print defect is determined. This print quality determination may be performed by determining the difference from the number of non-defective pixels and determining whether the value is within a predetermined range.

In the above-described embodiment, the horizontally long second inspection range which is close to the character string is set, but the second inspection range is the inspection range of FIG. 5 as shown in FIG. It may be configured by excluding the character spacing from W2, that is, a plurality of range groups (W3) individually enclosing each character that constitutes the character string M. If such a second inspection range W3 is set, the character is set. By accurately grasping the deviation toward the interval side, more accurate pass / fail judgment can be performed.

Further, the position of the specific character in the character string is detected by matching with the standard character pattern, but the barycentric coordinates of the character within the first inspection range are calculated and the barycentric coordinates are calculated. It is also possible to set the second inspection range based on this, and in this case, the standard character pattern memory 2d and the matching process shown in FIG. 1 are unnecessary.

First inspection range setting means for setting a first inspection range including a specific character in a character string based on the detected position, and a barycentric position of the specific character included in the first inspection range is detected, and based on the detected position Second inspection range setting means for setting a second inspection range close to each character or character string, and data conversion means for binarizing image data in the second inspection range based on a predetermined threshold value. And a pass / fail determination unit that counts the number of pixels of the printed portion in the second inspection range from the binarized image data and determines pass / fail based on the counted value. Print inspection device.
