Abstract

The method involves controlling the generation and combination of part color images to correct the register setting when feeding another type of print substrate. When a change of print substrate type occurs all characteristics of the substrate relevant to the register are taken into account using correction values for performing a print directly in conjunction with the change. Independent claims are also included for the following: an arrangement for implementing the method.
