Abstract:
A roll-fed printing apparatus and a method for controlling the roll-fed printing apparatus for printing print jobs on a recording medium by means of a print mechanism. The method comprising the steps of receiving a print job with print job settings, adding the print job to a print queue of the roll-fed printing apparatus, specifying a first start position on the recording medium for printing the print job, due to a planned finishing action automatically adding an additional job to the print queue in order just behind the print job or in order just before the print job, specifying a second start position on the recording medium for processing the additional job in a neighborhood on the recording medium of the print job, specifying a width and a length on the recording medium for processing the additional job, the width and the length determined by the kind of the finishing action, upon arrival of the print job at the head of the print queue or upon arrival of the additional job at the head of the print queue whichever arrives at first, printing the print job and processing the additional job at the first start position and at the second start position respectively, wherein the additional job is a non-printing job during execution of which the recording medium is moved relative to the print mechanism without any printing at the second start position over an area which corresponds to the specified length and width.

Claim (Index 7):
A roll-fed printing apparatus for printing images on a recording medium, comprising:\n a controller for controlling a print queue comprising a print job to be printed, wherein the controller is configured to automatically add due to a planned finishing action an additional job in the print queue just before or just after the print job, to specify a starting position for the additional job on the recording medium in a neighborhood of the print job on the recording medium, and to specify a width and a length on the recording medium for processing the additional job, the width and the length determined by a kind of the planned finishing action, and wherein the additional job is a non-printing job during execution of which the recording medium is moved relative to the print mechanism without any printing at the start position over an area which corresponds to the specified length and width, and wherein the planned finishing action is a lengthwise cut of the recording medium.
