Claim 6:
7. A printing system comprising a print media having a media path direction, the printing system comprising:
a skew detection device in the media path, the device to determine a skew in the print media, wherein the device comprises:
a first contact roller rotatable around a first axis;
a second contact roller rotatable around a second axis, wherein one of the second contact roller and the first contact roller are angled relative to the media path direction so that the first axis and the second axis lie in a plane parallel to the print media and are not parallel;
a first sensor to measure a first rotation parameter of the first contact roller, and;
a second sensor to measure a second rotation parameter of the second contact roller, and;

a controller in communication with the first sensor and the second sensor, the controller to determine the skew in the print media based on the first rotation parameter and the second rotation parameter.
