Summary:A system is disclosed. The system comprises a roller with a spindle to wind and/or unwind a roll of media, a media advancement sensor to measure the advancement of the media, and a controller. The controller is to control the spindle to rotate an angular displacement, and to determine a calculated media advancement based on the angular displacement and a radius of the roll of media. The controller is also to receive from the media advancement sensor a measured media advancement. The controller is further to detect that a displacement difference between the measured media advancement and the determined media advancement exceeds a predetermined threshold. If the displacement difference exceeds the predetermined threshold a slippage condition is detected.
