Patent ID: 10668751

Abstract:
A printing system and a method for printing a plurality of images on a first web and on a second web are disclosed. The printing system includes a print head, a feed unit for feeding both the first web and the second web simultaneously to the print head in a feed direction relative the print head, a wrap up unit for wrapping up both the first web and the second web simultaneously to form a first output roll and a second output roll respectively, a user interface configured to set a printing arrangement of the plurality of images on the first web and the second web and to input the print head, the feed unit and the wrap up unit for performing printing according to the printing arrangement by ejecting marking material on the respective webs. The printing system includes a prediction module for predicting a first diameter of the first output roll and a second diameter of the second output roll based on the printing arrangement. The prediction module is configured to establish a difference of the predicted first diameter and the predicted second diameter, and to provide to the user interface a warning when the established difference is larger than a predetermined diameter difference threshold.
