Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9909459A1] The invention relates to an adapted-performance printing or copying system for producing a predetermined sheet sequence made up of individual sheets printed in monochrome and/or colour. The inventive printing or copying system contains a high speed, monochrome or two-colour digital printer (10) and a digital colour-printer (11), these two printers being interconnected via a paper route connector module (16). A master control unit assigns the individual sheets to be printed to the printing units, said sheets being collected in a single sheet collection device (18). The monochrome and colour information from an original data flow are assigned to the printing unit and organised in terms of time in order to ensure that the print job is performed at an optimal speed.
