Abstract
The invention relates to a method for automated error management in a printing machine, wherein a recurring print image is imprinted on a moving material web. To improve automated error management for existing inspection systems, the invention provides a method wherein the print image is acquired by a line scan camera and forwarded to a control unit, in which a print error is recognized in the acquired print image, using an error recognition algorithm, and is saved by the control unit together with a position information and a status information. The position includes at least the margin position of the print error on the material web, and a plurality of recognized print errors are entered by the control unit in a cluster image depending on the position information and the status information, wherein the control unit recognizes an error cluster and error cluster information is output via the error cluster.
