Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for printing single sheets in a printer or in a copier, where double-sided printing on single sheets.
- duplex mode be called the duplex color spot operation becomes.
- duplex mode single sheets are double-sided printed. If there is only one print on one side and on the other on the other side, two prints are made with different colors, this is how one speaks of duplex printing with three times Printing. If on both sides of the cut sheet two prints are made, this is called duplex printing with four prints.
- the single sheets are in groups the transport route within the printer. To this Way can at transfer speed between the single sheets a small distance can be set.
- the drive elements for transportation will be through an additional Start and stop operation is not loaded, so that the wear of the entire transport system is reduced. Also the control effort is reduced because of path and switching tolerances do not occur and corresponding buffer zones do not become necessary.
- the throughput of cut sheets the printer or copier is increased because the group of Single sheets at maximum speed on the transport path can be performed.
- a method specified for printing on single sheets in which a predetermined Number of single sheets combined in a group is, the single sheets at transfer speed have a predetermined distance from each other that is less than the length of a single sheet seen in the transport direction is, the single sheets of this group a first printing unit successively for printing with a first color on the first The individual sheets of the group are fed under Turn the single sheets back to the first printing unit successively for printing with the first color on the second Page are fed, and then the single sheets the group the second printing unit for printing with fed to the second color on the second side and then be issued.
- This aspect of the invention relates to duplex printing printing three times.
- the single sheets are grouped passed two printing units to create one on one side Print and on the other side two different colored prints applied.
- too Minimum distance between two single sheets and the transport speed be maximum.
- a high throughput achieved with little wear for the drive elements.
- the distance between the last single sheet is preferably the previous group and the first cut sheet of the following group approximately the predetermined distance. In this way, the throughput of single sheets becomes maximum.
- the group alternately the first ring and the second Ring promoted.
- the number of single sheets of the group because of the alternating Single sheets at the beginning of the group and single sheets can be funded at the end of the group almost simultaneously in the connecting channel be promoted and at the end of the funding route in Connection channel can be distributed to both rings.

- Figure 27 shows that those provided with a fourth printed image Single sheets, e.g. the single sheets B1, B2, about the Output section 42 promoted in the paper output 30 and be filed there.
- a subsequent group of single sheets B1 'to B11' is funded from paper input 16.
- the group of Single sheets B1 'to B11' then pass through the high-performance printer in the for the first group of single sheets B1 to B11 described manner.
- Figure 28 shows the common transport of single sheets B3 to B11 of the first group and the single sheets B1 ', B2' and B3 'of the subsequent second group. Both printing units D1 and D2 are almost 100% fully occupied.
- Another variant is the path of the group from To select single sheets differently, for example by using the Group first after the printing unit D2, then the printing unit D1 then turning again printing unit D2, then printing unit D1 fed and the single sheets through the discharge channel 52nd be issued.
- the maximum number of single sheets in a group depends on the total length of the transport path in the printing system.
- the predetermined number of single sheets of a group results in where L 44 the length of the first transfer printing path 44, L 46 the length of the second transfer printing path 46, L 48 the length of the connecting channel 48, L 50 the length of the feed channel 50, L 52 the length of the discharge channel 52, L B the Length of the single sheet seen in the transport direction and a is the distance between two consecutive single sheets at transfer speed.
- Claim 19 describes a further calculation method for Find the maximum number of single sheets in a group. Threading the single sheets into the connecting channel 48 can be untriggered or triggered. With the untriggered The single sheets coming from ring R2 become the operating mode threaded into the connecting channel 48 without the cut sheets are stopped. With the help of Figures 1 and Figures 20 and 21 is said to be untriggered Operating mode are explained in more detail. As mentioned, it will Cut sheet B1 between cut sheets B6 and B7 in the connecting channel threaded and promoted up and then fed to the printer D1, while the cut sheets B6 and B7 are fed to the printing unit D2 (cf. FIGS. 20 and 21).
- the distance between size the single sheets from single sheet B6, that the single sheet B1 to be threaded at a defined speed is promoted on the transport route 52 and without stop threading between sheets B6 and B7 can.
- the speed of the cut sheets on the transport path from switch W4 to switch W6, where the speed is reduced again to transfer speed, remains approximately constant in this operating mode.
- Thread on the common path of the connecting channel 48 successively the single sheet B1 between the single sheets B6 and B7, the single sheet B2 between the single sheets B7 and B8, the single sheet B3 between the single sheets B8 and B9 and so on.
- the turnout W3 is when leaving the Cut sheets on each cut sheet to the successive Single sheets alternately the first or the to supply second printing unit D1 or D2.
- the single sheet B1 and the following single sheets will be about from turnout W6 to turnout W2 with transfer printing speed transported, on the printing unit D1 for the third time printed and thread between the single sheets B6 and B7 as well the following single sheets, which have a corresponding Distance from each other.
- After threading on the Soft W2 becomes the single sheets B1 and the following single sheets conveyed to the printing unit D2 at increased speed.
- the single sheets are optionally turned around them in one of the output trays 32, 34, 36 with the front at the bottom (face down) or face up.
- the last single sheet B11 has the first one Group of single sheets the common path in the connecting channel 48 happens and the first single sheet B1 'of following penalty group can be moved in.
- the current single sheets are closed.
- the application advantage lies in the untriggered operating mode in the fact that no special control effort when threading on the turnout W2 is required. Rather, the Return of the single sheets from the upper printing unit D2 to lower printing unit D1 at a constant speed.
- the disadvantage is that tolerances in the distances between the Single sheets within the group cannot be balanced can and so a jam can occur when threading.
- the triggered operating mode is explained below.
- 20 and 21 is that from the printing unit D2 to the printing unit D1 Single sheet B1 to be fed between the single sheets Thread B6 and B7 on the turnout W2.
- This mode is the distance between the single sheets B6 and B7 and the following single sheets are equal to the short nominal distance.
- the single sheet B1 is after leaving the Soft W4 with turning function with such great speed
- Direction of turnout W2 transports it early enough before the turnout W2 arrives, preferably before the single sheet B6 has passed switch W2. At this turnout W2 it is Sheet B1 stopped briefly or at speed slowed down. The further transport of the single sheet B1 is then triggered by cut sheet B6.
- the rear end of the cut sheet B6 Preferably at A signal leaves the rear end of the cut sheet B6 generates the transport of the single sheet B1 in the connecting channel 48 preferably at the same speed initiated, with which the single sheet B6 is also promoted.
- the single sheet B1 thus threads at the same increased speed between the single sheets B6 and B7 like the transport speed of the single sheet B6 in the connecting channel 48.
- the first pair of drive rollers reached in the connecting channel 48 this is Roller pair and also the following in the connecting channel 48 in its transport speed to transfer printing speed reduced because the single sheet B7 is still partially in the area of the first printing unit D1, for example in a Decurler. Accordingly, the single sheet B1 is also in its Speed to the speed of the cut sheet B7 reduced.
- the cut sheet B7 the printing area, preferably leaves the area of the decurler in the printing unit D1
- the single sheet B1 is then also at an increased speed transported forward and reaches the transport route 50.
- the single sheet B1 is increased with a constant Speed transported to the area on the turnout W6 and then reduced to transfer speed.
- the time to reduce the transport speed of sheet B1 can be on the preceding sheet B11 must be coordinated. Then the gap between the end of sheet B11 and the beginning of sheet B1 Nominal distance or slightly larger.
- the other single sheets B2, B3 etc. within the 911 group of single sheets are transported in a similar way, as described for single sheet B1 is.
- Threading on the turnout W2 This reduces the risk of traffic jams when threading and the distance between the single sheets can be minimized.
- a disadvantage is the increased control and Tax expense when threading.
