Abstract

The device has a detector (D2) arranged at a web path in a longitudinal direction of webs (21, 22) at a distance to a side of the webs. An evaluating device (34) produces a warning alarm or a signal, which produces the warning signal, during deviation of periodically recurring patterns that are compared with each other. The signal is fed to a controller of a rotary printer over an output interface and causes cutting of the webs by a cutting device and/or activating a gripping device and/or shutting down of the web path of the printer. An independent claim is also included for a method for monitoring a running paper web of a rotary printer.
