Abstract
A stencil printing machine in which a stencil is sheared off of a continuous roll of stencil sheet to a length determined by a selected size of printing paper, mounted onto a printing drum, removed from said printing drum, and transported to and inserted into a used stencil container by a transport means, which comprises a stencil length specifying means which specifies the length of the stencil according to a selected size of printing paper when the stencil is prepared for printing, and a control means which controls an operation amount of the transport means, at the time the stencil is removed from the printing drum, in relation to the length of the stencil as specified by the stencil length specifying means. The control means may comprise a random access memory to record the data from the stencil length specifying mechanism. The operation amount of the transport means can be related to rotation angle of the printing drum, and operation of the transport means may be terminated by detection of a rotational angle of said printing drum at which said used stencil is completely transported and deposited into said used stencil container can be detected.
