Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for controlling printing speed of print jobs having different printing images on printing material, includes calculating printing data from a first static component, calculating and combining printing data from first variable components with printing data from the first static component forming first printing data and forwarding the first printing data to a printing unit, counting a current value with a counter, calculating printing data from a second static component, printing first printing images with the printing unit using first printing data and controlling printing speed of the printing unit to conclude the calculation before the counter reaches a value, calculating and combining printing data from the second variable components with printing data from the second static component forming second printing data and forwarding second printing data to the printing unit, and printing the second printing images with the printing unit using second printing data.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for controlling the speed of printing when printing at least two successive print jobs each having at least two mutually different printing images on printing material, the method comprising the following steps: providing a first print job including n first printing images each having a first static component A and each having a first variable component a i where i=1 to n and n is an element selected from positive integers; providing a seco…
