Abstract:
A roll-fed printing apparatus for printing at least a first and a second image on a recording medium, a method for controlling such a printing apparatus and a software medium are disclosed. According to the method, each swath is printed by a print head that reciprocates in a scanning direction, the print head being controlled to apply marking material to the recording medium in accordance with a first set of image lines for each swath to be printed; the first set of image lines being provided to the print head from a swath buffer; wherein the first set of image lines are transmitted to the swath buffer out of a second set of image lines stored in a line buffer to be printed without interruption; wherein, when the line buffer comprises the final image lines of a first bitmap representing the first image while there are still empty data storage sections within the line buffer starting image lines of a second bitmap representing the second image are transferred to the empty data storage section of the line buffer.

Claim (Index 9):
The method according to  claim 8 , wherein, when the pausing signal, after having indicated that the printing of the second image should be halted, is changed to indicate that the printing of the second image should no longer be halted, the starting image lines of the second bitmap representing the second image are transferred to the empty data storage section of the line buffer.
