PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily detect a detection region provided on a sheet surface.SOLUTION: A detection device includes: a conveyance part for conveying a sheet in which a detection region is provided on at least a portion of a sheet surface; a sensor which outputs a detection signal in accordance with the surface of the sheet conveyed by the conveyance part; an acquisition part which acquires the detection signals output from the sensor at a prescribed interval in accordance with conveyance of the sheets; and a detection part which detects the detection region on the basis of an integrated value of the change amounts of the detection signals acquired at the prescribed interval by the acquisition part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 12 【課題】用紙面に設けられた検出領域を容易に検出すること。【解決手段】検出装置は、用紙面の少なくとも一部に検出領域が設けられた用紙を搬送する搬送部と、搬送部により搬送される用紙の面に応じて検出信号を出力するセンサと、センサから出力される検出信号を、用紙が搬送されることに応じて所定の間隔で取得する取得部と、取得部が所定の間隔で取得した検出信号の変化量の積算値に基づいて検出領域を検出する。【選択図】図１２
