Claim:
1. A system, comprising: a printing system further comprising printing modules through which print media is transferred, the printing modules including marking engines and sensors to detect faults, and a print media conveyor; and a printing system controller comprising a fault identification system (FIS), a scheduler, a user interface, and a reconfiguration unit, the FIS being in communication with the scheduler and the printing system, the scheduler being in communication with the FIS, the user interface, the reconfiguration unit, and the printing system, the FIS comprising a machine learning component, a Dependency-matrix (D-matrix) component, and an optimal search component, the machine learning component iteratively mapping all real time sensor measurements from all sensors into probabilities of occurrences of the faults; the D-matrix component constructing a D-matrix; the optimal search component: the printing system physically implementing the one more particular test, so as to dynamically reduce a number of tests required to detect a fault in the printing system.
