Abstract

Procedure uses sensors (6, 7) for monitoring a conveyor belt that capture a sequence of folded copies along the transport path. The sensors include a transmitter and a receiver part. Only when both receiver parts detect a copy is a counter impulse (15) generated and sent to a paper blockage detector (12). An Independent claim is made for a device for detecting paper jams.
