To provide a stencil printing stencil paper roll for making constant the feed resistance of the stencil paper in plate-making or when the stencil paper is wound on a plate cylinder.

Flanges 33 and 34 are fitted preliminarily on both ends of a winding cylinder 32 forming the cylindrical shape and fixing them by a bonding agent M, and a stencil paper 16 is wound on between both flanges 33 and 34. When a stencil paper roll 15 is replaced, the winding cylinder 32 and the flanges 33 and 34 are supported on bearing recessed sections 31b, 31b on the sides of supporting frames 31, 31. Spherical bodies 35 are pressed on end faces 33e and 34e of shaft sections 33c and 34c by a press plate 36 formed of a plate spring. The interval between the shaft sections 33c and 34c of the stencil paper rolls 15-15 can be set same for all the rollers, and the feed resistance of the stencil paper 16 generated by a tension providing mechanism K2 can be kept constant.
