Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a device and method for detecting an ink droplet. The device includes a conveying means configured to convey an article to be printed to a printing position under a print head for ejecting the ink droplet; an imaging means configured to acquire an image of a printing area after the ink droplet is ejected on the printed area of the surface of the article by the print head; an analyzing means configured to acquire at least one geometric property of the ink droplet from the image and determine whether ink droplet abnormality has occurred based on the at least one geometric property.

Claim (Index 16):
The device according to  claim 2 , wherein the article is a flexible film, an alignment mark is disposed on the flexible film, and the analyzing means is configured to determine whether ink droplet abnormality has occurred by comparing the image of the printing area and a reference image, wherein the reference image i acquired by:\n when the print head is normal, ejecting, by the print head, an ink droplet on a reference printing area of a reference film, wherein the reference film has the same material as that of the flexible film and has alignment marks disposed the same way as alignment marks on the flexible film and acquiring, by the imaging means, the reference image of the reference printing area.
