Abstract: A method for attributing an amount of resource consumption to an individual printed image that is printed in a printer comprising a print job controller and a print engine, wherein the print job controller is configured to compile a print job that comprises at least two images to be printed, the print job controller comprising an estimation section arranged to estimate a respective amount of resource consumption for each of the at least two images on the basis of print data that define the images, the method comprising the steps of: a) compiling a print job with at least two images; b) printing at least a part of each of the at least two images while monitoring a total amount of resource consumption; c) estimating the amount of resource consumption for the printed part of each of the at least two images on the basis of the print data; and d) proportioning the monitored total amount in proportion to the estimated amounts.

Abstract: The invention relates to a printing system for printing a plurality of images on a web. The printing system comprises a print engine, a feeder for feeding the web to the print engine in a feed direction relative to said print engine, a receiver for receiving the printed web, a user interface configured to set a printing arrangement of the plurality of images on the web and to input the print engine, the feeder and the receiver for performing printing according to the printing arrangement by ejecting or adhering marking material on the web and a scheduling module for scheduling the plurality of images on the web.The printing system comprises in storage a media list of media types. Each media type in the list is provided with at least one predetermined distance. The scheduling module is configured to move an image of the plurality of images in the printing arrangement from an originally planned location of the web to a new location of the web such that a distance of the new location to an end of the web, which end is closest to the originally planned location, is larger than the at least one predetermined distance. Also a method for such a printing system is revealed.

Abstract: A method of aligning a first image on a first side of a medium and a second image on a second side of a medium, the first side and the second side facing away from each other, includes using an imaging device for printing the first image and a discrimination feature including a discriminatory edge perpendicular to an alignment direction in a coordinate system of the medium on a first side of the medium while controlling the position of the medium with respect to a coordinate system of the imaging device based on a first set of feed parameters and using the imaging device for printing the second image and a plurality of features on the second side of the medium while controlling the position of the medium in the coordinate system of the imaging device based on a second set of feed parameters, the plurality of features including a first feature, a second feature and a third feature.

Abstract: A method is provided for printing an image on a substrate on a support body of a printing apparatus, the method including the steps of: providing a masking sheet on the support body; deriving from the image a boundary outline of the image; selecting a location on the support body for printing the image; printing the boundary outline of the image on the masking sheet at the selected location of the support body; printing at least one distance marker on at least one side of the printed boundary outline on the masking sheet, said distance marker indicating a distance from the boundary outline; placing the substrate on the masking sheet at the selected location of the support body using the boundary outline; determining an offset of the substrate relative to the printed boundary outline by way of the printed distance marker, after the substrate placing step; and printing the image on the substrate based on the determined offset of the substrate relative to the printed boundary outline.

Abstract: A printing system for printing a plurality of images in a first web and in a second web, includes a print head; a feeder configured to feed both the first web and the second web simultaneously to the print head in a feed direction relative said print head; a user interface configured to set a printing arrangement of the plurality of images in the first web and the second web and to input the print head and the feeder for performing printing according to the printing arrangement; and a print-pause module for stopping printing of the printing arrangement, the print-pause module being configured to: provide to the user interface a print-pause arrangement in which a print-pause is arranged in the printing arrangement upstream the feed direction with respect to both the print head and a first image whose printing is being performed in the first web when the print-pause module is selected; and cooperate with the user interface to input the print head and the feed means according to the print-pause arrangement to stop printing once printing of said first image is complete.
